The Cross-generational Integration Programme rolled out by this Centre aims at facilitating interaction between senior citizens and the youth, so as to promote mutual understanding and respect across different generations. The programme of this academic year will be held from November this year to March next year. It will invite students of this university, secondary school students and elderly people at different times to visit various CUHK facilities, and to organise thematic activities in secondary schools or elderly centres. The exchange of these groups of people is expected to be enhanced that leads to cross-generation integration.

I·CARE Hong Kong Cultural Tours Project

Hong Kong has a pivotal role in international context. Not only does this city occupy an important position in the history of modern China, but it is also inextricably linked with countries around the world. Nevertheless, how much do you know about the stories of this “Pearl of the East”?

The I·CARE Hong Kong Cultural Tours Project of this academic year is now recruiting docents. Admitted students will receive a series of professional training (e.g. content research, itinerary design and formulation, story-telling skills, and tour guiding techniques) before being engaged in developing tour routes and writing scripts in accordance with the designated themes, site visits as well as mock tours. They will then be given chances to lead cultural tours serving secondary school students to unveil the hidden side of Hong Kong.

"Fitness x Mentorship" Scheme

The “Fitness x Mentorship” Scheme associates “exercising” with “volunteering” to foster a serving heart of students and strengthen their understanding of the community. Participants of the scheme will be trained with basic skills of a sports item and given chances to partner various members of the community in pursuing sports. This will allow students to develop regular exercise habit and build up healthy lifestyle. Above all, mutual understanding between students and the circle of their counterparts will be facilitated.
