2024 Campus Legends Presented by NCADA
Campus Legends presented by NCADA
Project Organiser: Singapore Cybersports & Online Gaming Association (SCOGA)
Project Overview & Aim: Campus Legends is an annual Inter-Tertiary Esports Tournament, organised under SCOGA’s initiative to engage, educate and empower youths to excel through Esports. For the Campus Legends Season 6, SCOGA collaborated with the National Council Against Drug Abuse (NCADA) with the aim of rallying the gaming community towards advocacy for a Drug-Free generation.
Under the banner “We Game as One”, the advocacy campaign sought to build a deeper awareness of how youths can do their part in keeping their friends safe from the harms of drug abuse. This is facilitated through provoking paradigm shifts on the drug issue via discussions on the relevance of the Drug-Free cause to our generation of youths.
As part of the collaboration with NCADA, Campus Legends held a Parents Seminar with the following theme:
“Our children are more vulnerable to drug abuse today. What can we do as parents?”
Campus Legends invited the Guest-of-Honour, Minister of State, Ministry of Home Affairs & Ministry of National Development, Associate Professor Muhammad Faishal Ibrahim who also served as one of the panelist. The panel discussion helped parents make sense of various vulnerabilities and realities faced by children today, and explored the key stresses as well as how parents may help their children. The discussion also focused on how drug addiction affects the developing brain of adolescents and what parents can do for early prevention.
