This paper is to examine and to document the mechanism of a project that helps the service-learners gain and develop their leadership and self-concept in one of our service-learning projects named: “Building self-concept and career awareness for orphan children in the SOS Village, Ho Chi Minh City”. Since service learning is newly adopted in UEF, this paper also means to be a foundation for building up the syllabus and service-learning courses in UEF in the future, in order to institutionalize the service-learning experience to the academic service-learning experience.
