Through participation in political activism and entrepreneurship workshops and exposure to the thoughts and visions of political pioneers, entrepreneurs, activists, thinkers, journalists, and officials across the political spectrum, those who attended Converge were left with a broader and more profound mindset of political tolerance as well as an appreciation for the diverse and collaborative young, political minds necessary to “bridge the divide, to converge towards a politically-prosperous, collective future.
