What is the MLT?
- An electrifying forum that challenges the minds of its riveted participants and advances them as future leaders in their respective communities
- Tolerance and respect - qualities essential to human development - are often lacking in both the Muslim and the greater Western community
- Constructive, open dialogue that engages diverse voices on major issues is an essential step towards the development of such values
