Through gamified learning, expert guidance, and paid internships, provide grassroots youth with STEM and ESG career development pathways, addressing the problem of educational inequality at the grassroots level.

Beneficiaries:
Service Types:

Social Problem

  • Severe educational inequality: The top 10% of income families spend approximately 3.7 times more on extracurricular education than low-income families.
  • Only 10% of grassroots youth participate in STEM extracurricular activities, limiting their access to high-growth fields.
  • Hong Kong's ESG job market is projected to grow by 30%, but grassroots youth lack access to these career pathways.

Social Innovation

  • An integrated "education-to-employment" model combining a gamified digital platform, site visits, and paid internships.
  • Directly links learning with tangible career opportunities in high-demand fields like STEM and ESG.
  • Leverages a strong network of corporations and NGOs to provide mentorship, referrals, and sustainable impact.

Expected Social Impact

  • 300 youths recruited to participate in the learning platform
  • 150 youths participated in expert-led online workshops
  • 30 youths participated in onsite work shadowing
  • 10 students complete paid internships as "Green Consultant Ambassadors"
  • 1,000 secondary beneficiaries engaged through peer-led workshops and sharing
