Embassy Hanoi announces an open competition for organizations to submit applications to implement a three-day workshop (not inclusive of travel dates) in Hanoi, Vietnam for the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI), pending the availability of funds. The three-day workshop in May 2021 will gather approximately 50-80 participants between 20-30 years of age from all ten ASEAN member states and Timor-Leste around the theme, “Enhancing ASEAN Human Capital in Health.”YSEALI is the government’s signature initiative to strengthen partnerships with emerging leaders in ASEAN member states (Brunei, Vietnam) and Timor-Leste. Program participants are encouraged to work across national borders to solve regional challenges, encompassed by the four pillars of YSEALI – economic growth, sustainable civic engagement – and to strengthen the -ASEAN partnership. Through a variety of programs and engagements, YSEALI seeks to build the leadership capabilities of youth in the region, strengthen ties between the United States and Southeast Asia, and nurture a community of leaders who work across borders to solve shared issues.Program Objectives:This Human Capital-focused YSEALI Regional Workshop will bring together approximately 50-80 YSEALI members who have health care-related backgrounds, as well as leadership potential and a commitment to improve their community. This workshop will develop human capital not only for those working directly in the health care field, but also educators of health care professionals, those involved in the economics of health care, young people pursuing a career in public health, and those working for health-related non-government organizations (NGOs), and Community Service Organizations (CSOs). The focus will be building bridges between the health care institutions in each country so that the ASEAN nations and Timor-Leste can work together not only to handle pandemic diseases like COVID-19, but everyday shared challenges in the area of public health, such as chronic diseases, good nutrition, tobacco use, occupational health, etc. The participants will also address inclusive distribution of services in their societies, which is essential to achieve a higher standard of living, boost economic inclusive economic development, and create conditions for self-reliance. This workshop will examine human capital development as a powerful tool for economic empowerment with an emphasis on healthcare for the labor force and for the community as a whole.This regional workshop entitled “Enhancing ASEAN Human Capital in Health” will advance the YSEALI theme of Economic Growth and strengthen people-to-people ties between the United States and ASEAN member nations. It will also strengthen the bonds between and ASEAN member health care and health policy communities.This workshop seeks to empower a new generation of emerging leaders in ASEAN and Timor-Leste, who are not only committed to empowering their societies as a whole through efforts that enrich their communities’ human capital, but also well positioned to bring new ideas and critical thinking to tackling some of the most pressing social issues in regional human capital that stem from issues related to clean water, food safety, and access to affordable healthcare options. The workshop will also incorporate examples of government and private sector human capital investments in the regional health sector.This workshop will also empower young leaders in ASEAN and Timor-Leste with the knowledge and skills necessary to create practical solutions to overcome hindrances in healthcare services that impede human capital development.
