I·CARE Hong Kong Cultural Tours Project
The Hong Kong Cultural Tours Project 2015-16 aims at recruiting CUHK students to be potential culture ambassadors to get improvement in their guiding skills through a series of professional theoretical training as well as field practice. The culture ambassadors are supposed to lead local disadvantaged high school students in cultural tours to let them get involved in the history and stories of Hong Kong.
BLESS HK Rural and Remote Community Friendship Project
The project focuses on the Sha Tau Kok community where twenty CUHK students will conduct regular home visits as well as community exploration from October 2015 to March 2016. In the project, students will visit elderly people living in Sha Tau Kok regularly to care their daily life with warmth and at the same time listen to the stories of the community talked by the elders. In addition, students will be divided into groups to get knowledge of the community including the history, culture, economy and citizen life.
