Leaders' Forum- Manila

After months of planning, weeks of sleepless nights and hours of mind-boggling activities, UP Bannuar paved way to the biggest gathering of young leaders in the Metro Manila area.

With the theme "Redefining Passion, Challenging Solutions", LF-Manila served as an avenue for the students to inflame their hearts with what CHANGE is and what can they do to initiate CHANGE. This gathering aimed and succeeded in informing these young leaders about the current national issues, may it be of political, social and even environmental issues.

Through the lectures of the venerable and respected individuals in and out of the country, the students were able to identify all the problems which push our country in the verge of crises. Also, at the end of the lectures, they were able to internalize all the information fed and formulated solutions to these problems. These young leaders were able to establish the significance of moving forward and actively participating in a revolution to which change is fought for-- a revolution aiming to build a nation through responsible leadership.

The list of speakers in the said event is as follows:
