3rd EASTERN VISAYAS STUDENT COUNCIL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
"Changing Ourselves to Change the World: Responding to the Challenge of a Global Ethic Leadership "




NAME, DATE AND VENUE OF PROGRAM

Third Eastern Visayas Student Council Leadership Conference
28 to 30 November 2007, Friday to Sunday
Name of Venue: Vicmar Beach Resort
Address of Venue: Baybay, San Jose, Tacloban City






ABOUT THE PROGRAM


Given the avenues for growth and development could enable the youth to vividly envision and channel their passion and energies into becoming effective agents in nation -building. With this in mind, the AN WARAY Party List Organization took the initiative to establish an active partnership with the youth in Eastern Visayas to harness their potential and be of service to the community.
Hence, the opportunity to build closer ties with student leaders within the region urged a number of young leaders to spur the creation of the Student Council Leadership Conference in the year 2006. Run entirely by the youth, for nearly three years now the conference has firmly established its niche in creating a dialogue platform among student council leaders within Eastern Visayas and a forum that provides opportunities for closer and more regular contact among student leaders who will become now and in the future leaders of their own generation. Young voices continue to be heard and plan of actions have thus borne fruitful projects.
Through a consensual, consultative and principle-oriented process, student leaders are given the chance to discuss key student leadership issues, study the current trends and challenges confronting their fellow college students, brainstorm possible solutions and responses to such challenges and enhance themselves with the necessary skills in order to concretize and realize such solutions and responses.
In fulfillment of its education and youth development agenda, the AN WARAY Party List Organization hopes that with the diligence and persistence of the Student Council Leadership Conference, more young decision-makers will converge and be inspired with the united vision, and more challenging endeavors will be undertaken that will reveal the real value of their involvement and commitment in nation building. With the number of participants growing with every year, and with the guidance of mentors and delegates from the previous LeadCon, the future is bright as they continue working together to realize their dreams of creating a better future for our country.
