Green Elder Internship Program

「綠識無限耆」計劃得到滙豐香港社區夥伴計劃資助,以環境保護、綠色技能為主題,並從知識、技能、價值觀和態度各方面,培訓長者成為環保活動的統籌及導師,當中包括:

1. 環保繪本導讀員
2. 海岸奇兵
3. 植物探險家

長者將會協助宣傳環保及可持續生活,並可獲得工作機會,充實退休生活。

完成培訓後,他們會為基層家庭及社區人士設計及舉辦互動、有趣的活動,培養他們對環境保護的意識及提升認知,協助紓緩疫情為他們帶來的壓力,促進身心健康。活動亦能促進跨代共融,以及傳統智慧及文化傳遞。

The “Green Elder Internship Program,” sponsored by the HSBC Community Partnership Programme 2022, is dedicated to environmental protection and the development of green skills. The program aims to train elderly individuals to serve as coordinators and tutors for community-based environmental protection activities, focusing on fostering knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes in this field. The program encompasses various activities, which include:

1.Environmental Picture Book Guides
2.Shoreline Cleanup Rangers
3.Plant Explorers

Through their participation in these activities, the interns will actively promote environmental protection and sustainable living practices, while also gaining valuable job opportunities that enrich their retirement life.

Upon completion of the training, the interns will be equipped to design and organize interactive and engaging activities for grassroots families and community members. These activities aim to cultivate environmental awareness, alleviate the pressures caused by the epidemic, and enhance physical and mental well-being. Additionally, the program fosters intergenerational integration, while also facilitating the transfer of traditional wisdom and cultural heritage.
