Youth Development
In partnership with HKFYG, we’re evaluating the effectiveness of a Positive Youth Development artistic training programme focused on the 5Cs (Competence, Confidence, Connection, Character, and Caring).
Highlights of Our Activities
Children and Adolescents
We have partnered with primary schools to study the psychological and academic impacts of social support systems on children. In collaboration with ASTRI and HKAGE, we’ve evaluated the affective states of online and on-site learners among talented students. Our work also includes organizing training and workshops with EEG lab experience sessions to assess and enhance student wellbeing, affection, and cognition.
Educator Support
We’ve conducted multiple workshops and seminars for educators, including
Train-the-Trainer programmes for primary school teachers on basic counselling skills and self-efficacy
Courses on enhancing classroom management and promoting mental health in schools
Professional development sessions combining psychological and educational theories with practical strategies
Our educator-focused initiatives aim to enhance teachers’ competence in addressing students’ emotional needs and managing their own work-related stress.
