Embrace a Day of Rejuvenation
In a fast-paced world with an influx of new information every day, taking care of our wellness and coping with a series of issues like stress and fatigue has become more important than ever. Therefore, we are excited to introduce an exceptional opportunity that will allow you to prioritise self-care and treat yourself a much-needed break from the daily grind.
The highly anticipated HKFYG Run for Wellness is making a triumphant return after a three-year hiatus. We invite everyone to embark on a fresh journey of self-care and wellness. On 15 October at the West Kowloon Cultural District Waterfront Promenade, an exhilarating lineup of backpack run races awaits.
Backpacks symbolise the loads on young people. Put on a backpack and share their loads! Please join hands with us and support the youth's emotional wellbeing.
Apart from the backpack running, there will also be a carnival where booths and stalls share the concept of all-round wellness and positive thinking. Immerse yourself in a diverse range of activities that encompass the six pillars of personal wellness: physical, emotional, social, occupational, digital, and environmental wellness. People of all ages are welcome to enjoy as we are dedicated to offering a holistic and fulfilling experience for everyone.
So, join us for a day of rejuvenation, connection, and positive energy! Let's run, laugh, and support one another as we embrace a healthier and happier future together.

Youth I.D.E.A.S. think tank latest report No. 72 on "Career Development and Challenges in the New Era of Generative AI"
Key findings
● 78.6% of respondents have used generative AI, while over 20% have never used it
● 66.7% of respondents agreed that "there will be a drastic reduction in the number of traditional job positions"
● Respondents were not overly worried about AI replacing them (score 4.87 out of 10). 14% believed that generative AI would increase their employability, while 28% held the opposite view
Main recommendations
● The Generative AI Committee should focus on fostering consensus for guidelines across sectors; raising public awareness of associated risks and responsibilities; and overseeing orderly development
● The government can establish pilot schemes in various public facilities to promote the application of generative AI in innovative ways
● The government can introduce an "AI Voucher” under the existing "Technology Voucher Programme" funding scheme in Hong Kong
● It is crucial to continuously increase incentives for training in generative AI skills to adapt to rapidly evolving technological advancements
Research period April to July 2023
Respondents 558 HKFYG members aged 15-34 (online survey); 18 respondents aged 15-34 (individual case interview); 7 experts and scholars (interview)
