“I can say one thing with certainty: participating in the 2020 postgraduate program at the SLE was one of the best things that could have happened to me. The program provided me with the space and tools to reinvent myself, challenged me in ways I didn’t think possible, and ultimately, it gave me the confidence to use my skills and knowledge to tackle future challenges.”
