The Stanford Club of Hong Kong is delighted to welcome a panel of 5 young education thought leaders from the realm of character education and positive education. Together, the panelists will share their insights innovating in education, including their personal journeys on:
- Founding a kindergarten that focuses on character building and nurturing
- Founding a learning community on character education and bringing that into Hong Kong schools
- Founding a learning community to enlighten, encourage and empower all learners
- Directing the leading non-profit in America to advance the science and practice of character development
