Program Highlights
Alhamdulillah, the 2022 AAMEP program definitely wins a good vibes “award”!
My biggest takeaway from the experience was the amazing opportunity to bond with my fellow delegates. The program provided me with a better understanding of who Muslims are in Australia, their history and their aspirations for the ummah’s development and success. My AAMEP experience made a lasting impact and has left me feeling more humbly confident in my ability to serve others.
