What
is Student Leadership Conference (SLC)?
This is the 8th
year for the City University of Hong Kong to organize
the Student Leadership Conference.
Student Leadership Conference (SLC) is designed to develop the
leadership potential of university students in Hong Kong and foster the linkage
among university students around the world. The objective of the Conference is
to encourage university students to develop and excel themselves as future
leaders, with the vision to contribute to the betterment of our society and
nation. Student Leadership Conferences were highly commended by the
participants and gained wide range support from academics, Government, business
and community leaders.
First launched in 2000,
the participants of the Student Leadership Conference extended from students of
the City University of Hong Kong to all tertiary institutions in Hong Kong in
2001, and then to universities in the Pearl River Delta Region in 2002. The
conference became an international conference since 2004. The conferences in
2005 and 2006 were jointly organized by City University and Shenzhen University
and achieved great success.
To tie in with the event, the Conference also
published the "Leader
21" in the past five years, in which successful
leaders and celebrities in various fields shared their insight and experience
in leadership.
