Crafting Connections

Aging, Social Inclusion, Poverty, Others

The project will create online courses featuring skilled fishermen sharing their craftsmanship and conduct hands-on workshops where underprivileged SEN children can learn these crafts directly from the fishermen. It helps foster cultural appreciation, boost self-confidence among participants, and foster the sustainability of traditional crafts in modern society.

Aging, Health Care

Dementia is an irreversible condition. By 2040, one in three people will be elderly. In 2039, more than 330,000 people in Hong Kong are expected to be diagnosed with dementia. With a team of registered occupational therapists, Brainy Training Kits uses their professional knowledge to design a training kit for people with dementia. The goal is to slow the progression of the disease and alleviate the burden on caregivers and medical staff.
