Speaker: Carol Yeung, 2014 President, JCI Hong Kong Jayceettes
Language: English or Cantonese
Duration: 45 min
Descriptions: This workshop aims to present the concept of active citizenship and to showcase past and existing community development projects related to social peace, and to create an interactive discussion among students to develop future social peace projects in our local community.
Living, communicating, taking action and creating impact in our communities. Are you a young active citizen? Do you want to make a difference in your community? A society functions as a whole with each of us playing a role as citizens as members of our communities. We start with recognizing and accepting the diversity in our society, and then analyze the needs of the community, and cooperation with various organizations to achieve an effective, long term and positive impact. In 2013 and 2014, JCI Hong Kong Jayceettes ran a community development campaign in the name of “Care & Dare”, which created series of activities that foster mutual care and awareness to our local community from underprivileged, neglected groups like rehabilitated female offenders to ethnic minorities.
