The MIT Young ESG Leadership Workshop

2024-10-12

Our school is committed to nurturing students to be tomorrow’s leaders with a global vision and lifelong learning capabilities. This year, we selected the Head Prefects, Presidents of the Rotary Interact Club, Orbis Team, and the UNICEF Team to participate in the MIT Young ESG Leadership Workshop organized by the MIT Hong Kong Innovation Node. The program aimed to foster sustainability and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) awareness among secondary school students and equip them with the skills and mindset to be global citizens who make a positive impact on the community.

In the two full-day workshops, our students were arranged into groups with students from different schools. After listening to industry experts discuss ESG and sustainability issues, they were given a project to work on.

In the project, they were asked to tackle real-world sustainability challenges using the creative problem-solving approach of ‘Design Thinking,’ brainstorm innovative solutions, and share them with others.

It was an inspiring experience for our servant leaders, empowering them to take on important roles and actively contribute to the sustainability of the Earth.
