About Me
From personal experience, modern education, even in a highly developed
metropolis like Hong Kong, continues to be exam oriented. Especially, in the
education of middle-school years, there is an investment into personal
studies classes - but in many schools, these classes stop once students
enter high school. The result is a lack of return: an opportunity that could
be capitalized.
My goal in founding SDGxEdu is to alleviate this issue. I am passionate about
sustainability in general and the SDGs in particular. I believe everything
is underpinned by education and seek to do what I can to remedy the issues
in this area.
Project Description
SDGxEDU aims to bring SDG education to high-school with an eventual goal of
embedding it in curriculums globally. Numerous schools already teach social,
economic, political and environmental sustainability, but these topics often
remain unlinked. By using the SDG framework - which has become integral to
society due to ever-prominent global issues - SDGxEdu will promote and
practice sustainable education by delivering a more holistic learning
experience to students using youth-led peer-to-peer methods. The ultimate
mission for SDGxEdu is to incubate a generation of ambitious, responsible,
action-oriented global citizens. SDGxEdu will run pilot lessons at the KGV
School for Years 7 to 9.
