description How can students’ character formation be supported such that their youthful energy can become a force for the good? There is burgeoning research on how universities can help form people of character (Brooks et al. in International Journal of Ethics Education 4(2):167–182, 2019; Lamb et al. in Journal of Moral Education 1–23, 2021b). Nongovernmental organizations can also play a role. This article explores how a leadership program for students in the Philippines cultivates character using as theoretical framework the 7 strategies of character development presented in Lamb et al. in Journal of Character Education 17(1):81–108, 2021a. Upon examination of how the strategies are integrated, recommendations for improvement of the program design are given.
