Background & Purpose
- To better understand a social issue, empathise with the problems faced by a community, or appreciate the work of organisations engaged in positive social change.
- These will be conducted via experiential learning, via interaction with communities or immersion in a locality; and there should be opportunities for reflections and mutual sharing among participants.
- Non-profit organisations, civic groups, ground up initiatives, government agencies and corporations can host learning journeys as long as it achieves the above objectives.

Guiding Sensibilities and Community Feedback on Learning Journeys
This is a compilation of (non-binding) feedback and guiding sensibilities on what the learning journeys should be about:
- Consider surfacing parts of this country that is hidden, e.g. the ‘transient’ workers that have been here for years.
- Inter-sectoral collaboration, eg combine with environmental causes.
- Focus on the joy of just learning about one another., and the uniqueness of each community.
- We should showcase communities themselves rather than the organised groups who work with communities. Sometimes the voice of the community is not strong enough because organisations orchestrate and force that community to 'perform'.
