University of Macau’s (UM) Henry Fok Pearl Jubilee College (HFPJC), Chinese University of Hong Kong’s (CUHK) Lee Woo Sing College and the Diligentia College of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) have jointly organised the “Green Ambassadors Training Camp”.
A total of 30 students and staff members from the three universities participated in the training camp that aimed to further promote sustainable development and raise awareness on environmental protection.
During the training camp, the students took part in a series of talks and discussions on environmental protection and sustainable development, as well as learned about Hong Kong’s latest initiatives in areas like renewable energy, conservation and pollution prevention, according to a UM press release.
In addition, the students visited CIC-Zero Carbon Park – the first zero-carbon building in the neighbouring SAR – and learned about the results of integrating environmental protection concepts into the design of public spaces. They also visited the HKFYG Organic Farm to explore sustainable farming practices that prioritise soil health and biodiversity and reduce the use of chemicals.
