Service Learning and Outbound Trips

Service-learning Trip in Myanmar

Service Learning Trip in Myanmar 2019

 

Engaging in community service in Hong Kong or other parts of the world provides you with opportunities to contribute to society, reflect on social and global issues, and demonstrate a sense of responsibility. Through hands-on service projects, you can immerse yourself in their environments while giving back to the community in a meaningful way.

Apart from volunteering, you can also participate in cultural exchange tours to enhance your global outlook and cultural sensitivity by exchanging ideas and interacting with local people. You can  have the chance to meet people of all ages and backgrounds from around the world and establish wider connections.

 

The SDO organises outbound trips in the summer or winter break every year. Students are encouraged to join the trips and pay attention to news from the SDO. Below is a selection of highlights from the trips over the past few years:
