Civic Leadership at ICMS
At ICMS, we understand the pivotal role of civic leadership in shaping responsible global citizens. Our commitment lies in fostering civic leadership among our students, empowering them to become proactive contributors to societal betterment. Through our strategic framework, we integrate civic leadership principles into every aspect of our institution.
We invite community-based organisations to engage with us for mutual benefit, fostering collaborative partnerships that leverage our combined resources, expertise, and commitment to civic leadership. Together, we can address pressing social issues, promote sustainable development, and empower individuals and communities to create positive change.
Impact
Our civic leadership framework is designed for targeted impact across multiple dimensions. We equip our students with academic knowledge, practical skills, and ethical principles, enhancing their employability while fostering inclusivity within higher education. Through collaborations with industry partners and community engagement, we prepare our students to address pressing social issues and drive positive change.
Civic Leadership Ecosystem
Community engagement, scholarship, and industry engagement form the pillars of our vibrant learning ecosystem. These interconnected elements empower engaged citizens, foster impactful research, and promote mutually beneficial partnerships, ensuring relevance and responsiveness to community needs. By encouraging active participation in public life and community development, community engagement provides real-world context for scholarship and informs research questions with social relevance. Conversely, scholarship provides data-driven insights and evidence-based solutions to empower community initiatives and advocacy efforts.
The ICMS Civic Leadership Ecosystem comprises three key pillars:
Community Engagement
This pillar fosters active participation in public life and community development.
Academic Scholarship
Serving as the foundation of knowledge creation, academic scholarship generates new insights and solutions.
Industry Engagement
This pillar focuses on the collaboration and interaction between academia and industry.
The synergistic interaction of these three pillars creates a vibrant learning ecosystem within the institution. This holistic approach fosters impactful scholarship, meaningful community engagement, and mutually beneficial partnerships with industry. It makes the institution more relevant and responsive to the needs of the community and industry, cultivating a vibrant academic environment, empowering communities, and preparing students to become responsible and active global citizens.
