The Johore Student Leaders Council (JSLC) is proud to announce the 2nd Johore Student Leaders Conference(JISLC) to be held on June 26 & 27, 2012, at Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia. The aim of JISLC 2012 is to encourage student leaders from schools (age 13-18) throughout Asia and beyond to meet and exchange ideas, views, initiatives, and visions on an international platform; engaging in a cross-cultural learning environment.
This year’s theme will bring together the viewpoints and proposals of student leaders all over the world on a very critical issue of sustainable development that may determine the future of the generations to come. The United Nations 2005 World Summit Outcome Document refers to three reinforcing pillars that form the underpinnings of sustainable development which are i. economic development ii. social development and iii. environment protection.
Indeed, student leaders in schools today have a big role to play in bringing about the awareness and deep understanding of sustainable development. They can be the world community’s focal points for deepening the integration and development process through advocacy and peer education initiatives. Indeed the voice of student leaders has been recognized as significant and vital in the process of seeking solutions because the decisions made now will have an effect on the decisions of the future leaders. Consequently, this conference will serve as a huge platform for, not only the expression of ideas, thoughts, inspirations and reflections on issues of sustainable development but also the celebration of world peace and harmony.
To this end, the Johore Student Leaders Council (batch 2011) takes this honour to extend a cordial invitation to young student leaders across the globe to congregate at the Johor International Student Leaders Conference 2012 that will perhaps mark the very first milestone undertaken by global leaders of tomorrow.
