ASSEMBLY is an open competition meant to introduce Youths to the concept of Systems Thinking through town planning. Town Planning is a delicate art of balancing interests, pushing for growth and lots more. Youths will be guided through processes of what makes a township liveable, what are the obstacles and challenges and finally, are given a chance to plan their own township. It is perhaps a slight formal version of popular online games like Cityville or Sim City.

UNESCO World Heritage Sites
Heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live with today, and what we pass on to future generations. Our cultural and natural heritage are both irreplaceable sources of life and inspiration. Places as unique and diverse as the wilds of East Africa’s Serengeti, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and the Baroque cathedrals of Latin America make up our world’s heritage.
