Events & Forums

Community building is at the heart of everything we do


Alumni Events

Our focus is always on harnessing the power of community and networks to create sustainable, meaningful change. Our alumni events are a core part of this approach.

By creating regular forums for program alumni to meet, continue their personal and professional development, hear from inspiring speakers, meet up with existing contacts and build their networks, we ensure that their passion for inspiring change never wanes.
