Engaging with the youth is always inspiring. Recently, AASCTF joined @RMIT's Global Leader Experience program organized by @CommonPurpose. Students listened to experts and developed solutions for sustainable cities, from inclusive spaces to smart apps for public transport. 👏

American Express Leadership Academy
Founded in 2008, the @AmericanExpress Leadership Academy builds the personal, business, and leadership skills of high-potential non-profit and social purpose #leaders through multi-day, in-person training. In keeping with this vision, the Academy was launched in partnership with @CommonPurpose in 2010.
This year’s programme is designed to support a new generation of #Resilient #Changemakers and will convene 50 participants who will meet with established non-profit leaders, senior leaders from a range of other sectors, and American Express senior executives.
We are looking for:
▪️High potential leaders, currently in or identified for executive roles in the future, having an average of five to eight years of experience in the social sector or equivalent.
▪️High potential leaders that are at a unique transition point in their professional trajectory where the American Express Leadership Academy can help to accelerate their growth.
These leaders will:
▪️Be in roles that require them to accelerate their ability to influence inside and outside of their organisations.
▪️Have a track record of innovation, embracing change, and want to transform their team, organisation, and community.
▪️Have a desire and readiness to be supported in public speaking and tell their story to a broader audience.
▪️Work for a registered non-profit and/or social enterprise organisation.
▪️Be able to fully commit to all parts of the American Express Leadership including attendance at the in-person Academy, online sessions, engagement with peers, and commitment to being active in the community of Resilient Changemakers we are striving to develop.
The 2023 Academy begins on 27 June 2023 with an online session, followed by a four-day residential programme, 10–13 July 2023 in London, and is fully funded by American Express. A competitive selection process will determine the final 50 participants who will join the 2023 Academy in London in June.
Be quick though because the deadline for applications is Sunday 4 June 2023 11:59pm BST (Tonight).

"We need purposeful dialogues, not because we need everyone to agree on everything, but because we need to develop bridges between people who disagree in order to foster a better sense of social cohesiveness, tolerance, and collective responsibility for issues that impact society as a whole." @CommonPurpose

But win, he did. Dan became the first Black President of the Student Union and quickly got to work enacting impactful change, particularly for students who identify as LGBTQI+, and those of African and Caribbean heritage.
But the work didn't stop there: "I received a lot of support [when I came out] but I also received a lot of backlash. It made me think, what more can I possibly do? How can I create something good out of this?"
