U21 Summer School

Since 2004, there has been an annual U21 Summer School. Each Summer School has had a global theme and attracted some of the best students from around the U21 network to engage in an exchange of culture, experiences and intellect. The Summer Schools have been hosted by National University of Singapore, Lund University, Hong Kong University, and University of Virginia. Themes have included: Leadership in a Global Society, Asia as the Global Future and Sustainable Development in a Global Society.

In 2008, the Summer School was hosted by the University of Birmingham and the University of Melbourne sent five delegates to explore the theme of 'Embracing Diversity through Creativity, Culture and Innovation'.
