Together We Co-create a Sustainable Society
“S+”: HKCSS organises the summit and expo on social impact
The rapid changes in society, economy, and environment, coupled with major challenges such as demographic shifts, economic restructuring, extreme weather, and the technological revolution, present both significant challenges and golden opportunities for Hong Kong. In the face of these circumstances, we have to work with various sectors in the society, adopt innovative thinking and solutions, to build a sustainable and livable Hong Kong.
For over seventy years, the Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKCSS) has been rooted in the social welfare sector while connecting community, business, government, academia, and other sectors in creating social impact. On May 2nd and 3rd this year, we will host the “S+ Summit cum Expo” at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, bringing together over 4,000 stakeholders from different sectors to discuss local and regional social issues under the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Around 140 social welfare organisations, social enterprises, and impact businesses will showcase their effective solutions in response to social problems. We hope that “S+” can promote stakeholder collaboration (Synergy), create social impact (Social Impact), and promote Hong Kong’s sustainable development (Sustainability).
Event Highlights:
- The keynote speakers will introduce mainland China and international social development trends, as well as the important role of the social sector.
- How the financial sector, business sector, and social welfare sector collaborate to advance philanthropic development in Hong Kong.
- Global trends such as technology advancement, climate change, and the development of the Greater Bay Area and their implications for social services in Hong Kong.
- Around 140 exhibitors will showcase a diverse range of projects and collaboration opportunities including donations, volunteering opportunities, and social investment.
