Community Engagement
While the SES is well known as the curator of the annual International Symposium, that’s not all we do! Community outreach is another key avenue of community learning and engagement. This year, SES will further extend its community outreach to ten districts in Hong Kong, comprising Central and Western, Kowloon City, Kwun Tong, Sham Shui Po, Southern District, Wan Chai, Tai Po, Tuen Mun, Yau Tsim Mong, and Yuen Long. Through an array of intriguing activities, including SE Labs, SE Programmes, the Carnival, the Bazaar, school talks and workshops, and community tours, we gather community participation to bring about social change.
