DDAS Youth Day Celebration 2026
Human.exe - Discovering Your Strengths in the Age of AI
The DDAS Youth Day Celebration aims to bring together students across Singapore to explore an important question: How do young people prepare for the future in a world shaped by AI, misinformation, and digital disruption?
As artificial intelligence rapidly
transforms industries and information ecosystems, technical skills alone will not define the future workforce.
This event will introduce students to the idea that their
future pathway should not only be shaped by their course of
study, but also by who they are as individuals.

how their personality, values,and interests can
guide them in navigating the evolving digital world.
The event will also highlight the importance of digital defence, responsible AI use, and combating
misinformation, empowering youths to become thoughtful
and resilient contributors to Singapore’s digital future.
