2024 YEA Other Group Projects
24 August 2024
During the "ACT” phase of the Hong Kong 2050 is Now Young Environment Ambassador (YEA) programme, the YEAs formed teams while guided by mentors from the sustainability field after acquiring skills and knowledge during the “LEARN” phase to complete their own sustainable projects. Apart from the 3 winning groups, the other 4 groups also produced fruitful results and promoted sustainability and conservation messages in the community.

Group 1, as part of the Hong Kong Joint School Environment and Conservation Society, hosted workshops to repurpose used plastic bottles into plant pots and designed exhibition boards to introduce local plants.
Group 3 created The Sustainable Classroom on social media, and is on a mission to spread messages of sustainability in a fun and engaging way using a mascot designed by themselves. They have created short reels featuring a charismatic mascot that delivers important tips for eco-friendly living.
Group 6 is passionate about promoting local and seasonal eating on social media. They’re producing cooking videos that showcase delicious, eco-friendly recipes while interviewing experts from Green Hub HK to discuss the benefits of a vegetarian diet.
Group 7 focused on fashion sustainability, this team is setting up an online platform for exchanging second-hand clothing. Their initiative not only extends the life of clothing but also fosters a sense of community among fashion lovers.
Thank you for all YEA teams’ hard work on implementing their sustainable projects, and commitment to making a positive impact in our communities and environment! We hope that all YEAs have acquired climate change knowledge, different sets of skills, and a broadened horizon after this programme. We look forward to seeing all YEAs transforming into green leaders and working towards a greener and more liveable future for all of us.
