青成共創: 一起來建構心目中的青年中心吧!
上水其實並沒有太多能吸引年輕人加入並結識區內朋友的社區中心，所以社工們和一群年輕人便一同構思並設計出一個新的社區中心——「清河分處」來建立一個屬於上水和粉嶺年輕人的聯網社區。在六個星期裡面，他們以問「如果」的問題作為構思的起點，最終為區內的年輕人設計及製作出4個非常有趣的計劃。
完夢計畫 – 自己cosplay自己造
熱愛cosplay的Violetta因為受蝴蝶灣女青的介紹參加了賽馬會青創社區系列。她希望透過這個計劃為自己製作度身訂造的Cosplay服。在動手製作的過程中，Violetta認為自己有不少得著，亦希望藉此能夠啟發大家有想要的東西時可以選擇自己動手做，可能會有意想不到的收獲。

Biomaterial [Part 1] – Experimenting with Bioplastics

Impact Innovation – The Necessary Mutation of the Structure of Scientific Revolution. pt3/3
