The Alberta Student Leadership Summit has been rebranded to the Foundations Summit for Sustainability & Leadership (FSSL)!

FSSL is a day-long nationwide leadership conference held annually in October. It is open to both high school and post-secondary students -- from anywhere! The conference is a  leadership development opportunity that aims to cultivate skills, foster a sense of community, and ignite action while incorporating sustainable concepts.

We focus our leadership practices at individual, group, and community levels while seeking an understanding of our purpose as leaders.This involves forming a mindful response to the onslaught of complex leadership challenges we encounter in our everyday social contexts, news feeds, and personal experiences. Responding requires thoughtfully addressing underlying leadership challenges to inform meaningful approaches to being leaders.

FSSL 2023 took place on Saturday, October 21st. The theme was “From Deliberation to Action”, which was chosen to motivate and equip students to act as change agents. By bringing together influential leaders, experts, and visionaries, the Foundations Summit for Sustainability & Leadership aimed to create a platform for students to deliberate on pressing issues, exchange ideas, and ultimately drive real-world solutions. See the schedule from FSSL 2023 here.
