YMCA STREAM Experimental Learning International Project

Background of Co-organiser

The Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong is a Christian service organisation based in Hong Kong as part of the global YMCA movement. The Association is committed to building a civil and compassionate Hong Kong through uniting people with the same spirit to extend the Kingdom of God; fostering youth leadership to shoulder social responsibility with keen concern for the motherland and the world; and promoting multiple service programmes based on wholistic personal growth, commitment to the underprivileged and reconciliation extending from self to society.

\ Wu Kwai Sha Youth Leadership and Wholistic Development Center provides different sport training courses, such as basketball, soccer, swimming and pottery classes, which are suitable for primary and secondary pupils. We also provide different leadership and adventure trainings for various organisations and schools (both local and international). The Center also organises high-quality leadership training to match the development of the current university and college-youth students so as to open up more new ministries.
