Community Awareness and Leadership Among Singapore Youths Amidst a COVID-19 Landscape
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how businesses operate, how people work, and the way people socialize and interact. The changes that needed to be made were significant and did not happen easily. However, the COVID-19 pandemic also presented opportunities for creativity to flourish, innovations to happen, and kindness and magnanimity to be extended to one another. In Singapore, an island-nation city-state, significant changes had to be implemented to ring-fence the spread of infections and ensure the local economy and healthcare system could cope with the impact of the pandemic. At the forefront of some of these changes were the youths. Young people with creative ideas, boundless energy, and a strong sense of social cause and fairness led initiatives that had significant and positive impact on those most vulnerable. In this chapter, the backdrop of the evolution of a values-based education system in Singapore and its impact on the younger generation of Singaporeans is discussed followed by examples of youth-led initiatives in Singapore amidst a COVID-19 landscape.
