As social issues become increasingly complex, social service organizations urgently need innovative approaches to address community needs. Among these, art has become a common medium of intervention. By entering the public sphere through diverse artistic forms, it resonates with the public’s emotions and life experiences, thereby deepening concern and advocacy for relevant social issues.

With the support of the Community Chest, HKCSS organized the Art for Good Study Tour to Singapore in August this year. The delegation visited various local arts organizations and youth-led initiatives to explore and learn from Singapore’s work in leveraging art to drive social development and cultivate young artistic talent and career. The delegation will host a discussion session to present key takeaways from their Singapore trip and share their experiences in using artistic approaches for advocacy. Participants will be engaged to explore and brainstorm concrete future possibilities for implementing arts advocacy locally. Details of the discussion session are as follows:
