The Mosaic International Summit offers young leaders the opportunity to take part in an exciting leadership development programme. The 2011 Summit builds upon the programmes of previous years, and will provide world class speakers, leadership workshops and the opportunity to become part of a vibrant international network of young leaders committed to positive change.
The Summit aims for delegates:
1) to develop leadership ability and an aspiration to be an agent of change
2) to develop understanding of key global issues and inspire positive thinking to address them
A critical part of the leadership programme follows the Summit, where particpants are supported in their leadership journey by Mosaic. Participants report back on their development and community work every 3 months for a year following the Summit and take an active part in Mosaic's international network.
The last Summit was held in July 2010. The workshops, activities and lectures that took place in the first week covered issues such as environmental sustainability, global poverty and inter-cultural relations. The second week was then spent on regional study tours to Manchester, Bradford, London and Birmingham during which the participants had the chance to visit projects in the UK which brought to life the issues that had been discussed. Since the Summit, the alumni of the programme have been involved in a wide variety of community work, from setting up local libraries to volunteering at children's shelters.
