Youth
& AI
We teach young people from Hong Kong's ethnically diverse communities to use and build with AI. The programmes are practical: participants work on problems from their own neighbourhoods, with tools they can keep using after the event ends.

Design-thinking workshops
Hands-on workshops where young people define a problem from their own community, prototype a response, and test it with real users. Our February 2026 series included an HKDSE support-map challenge.

The Umeed Social Hackathon
A co-creation hackathon run with ILM Foundation in February 2026. Teams spent two days building and pitching projects for their communities, using the same AI tools we use in our own work.

AI literacy & community training
Practical training sessions with partner organisations, from an introduction to AI assistants through to community safety events such as fire-safety training.
