Technical Seminar: Reviving Remote Villages – Why and How?
 


Date, time & venue

2017-10-30;6:30pm - 8:00pm;Chan Yat Mei Sophie Room – 9/F

Organised by HKIE-EVD, HKIE-YMC and HKIE-AMC

Programme Highlights:-

For historical reasons, many remote villages in Hong Kong have lost its population to the city and overseas.  Without a resident population, some villages have seen their houses decaying rapidly, which in turn discourages the return of indigenous villagers.  There is a real risk of these villages disappearing, together with the loss of invaluable cultural assets.  This seminar will examine this problem and discuss what might be done to revive rural communities in remote villages.  The projects at Lai Chi Wo 荔枝窩will be presented as examples.

 

Speaker

Mr Lam Chiu Ying (林超英) is Chairman of the Environmental Campaign Committee.  In his capacity as Chairman of the Hong Kong Countryside Foundation, he is the initiator of the village revival efforts at Lai Chi Wo. 

 

Medium of instruction:

Cantonese (with powerpoint-bilingual)
