Reflections
On the last day of the summit, Taiwan led the reflections session using the theme, "Kaleidoscope". They shared with us their thoughts on how we could contribute to society, and sang songs such as "What a Wonderful World".
Summit Sessions
Day 4's summit sessions were started of with a session where we thought about what we have learnt throughout the summit. Thereafter, we classified statements that were raised during the summit into three categories - Commitment, Suggestion and Affirmation. It might sound easy, but the participants spend quite some time thinking through each statement and deciding which category it should belong to. We even edited some of them so that they represented our views as accurately as possible!
As a conclusion, each Member Organisation were given time to come up with their own statement. This statement comprised of what we envision and our commitments after the summit, when we return to our own countries.
Closing Ceremony
The summit officially ended with a simple outdoor ceremony. Each Member Organizations stuck its statement behind a giant jigsaw puzzle piece. These puzzle pieces were then placed on the ground, forming a kaleidoscope pattern, sumbolic of how we are all working together as one.

As the night slowly came to an end, we filled the stage and dance floor for some dancing! From cha cha to "Nobody", everyone had a great time grooving to the beat and we certainly wished we could have gone on all night.
