Youth S.P.O.Ts
The HKFYG has 22 Youth S.P.O.Ts. These youth centres provide space and opportunity to learn and develop. They focus on Strengthening Classroom Learning, Continuous Learning Opportunities and Experiential Learning in a Societal Context, offering tailor-made programmes in combination with other provided services. Each S.P.O.T. is equipped with an M21 community studio to facilitate development in creativity and enhance interaction with the community through social media; a LEAD Lab for learning through engineering, art and design, as well as an uKitchen to cook for the community. The NEIGHBOURHOOD First project has become a core component of community-based services through the S.P.O.Ts, while the Community Team Sports project encourages young people to get physical by participating in sporting activities and learning the values that come with team play. PH2 is Hong Kong’s first all-purpose Youth Hostel. It aims to create an enabling residential community for working young people, nurturing competencies in life skills, social networking and financial planning.

M21 Multimedia Services
By using the Internet, social and new media, the HKFYG connects with young people on their terms and through their chosen mode of communication. M21 is a multimedia centre with the slogan, “It’s all about YOUth” and is comprised of the Media Lab, the Media Academy and Media Broadcast. The M21 Youth Production Team gives young people a wide platform for imagination and innovation, and offers them hands-on operational experience in production, which is then screened through the M21 Internet Radio and TV, a broadcast network linked up with campus TV and community channels for the public.

The HKFYG promotes the concept of “life and career planning” for young people and as a result, the Youth Employment Network (YEN) organises diversified activities that include career counselling services to assist and support the transition from school to work. Since 2002, the Federation encourages pioneering entrepreneurial opportunities through Youth Business Hong Kong (YBHK), The HKFYG Jockey Club Social Innovation Centre and the Young Entrepreneurial Course. Incubation services, seed money, co-working spaces, networking platforms and mentee-centric business mentorships are also provided. Through the Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Youth Innovation and Entrepreneur Hub (E Hub) and the Global Youth Entrepreneurs Forum, local start-ups can develop business networks outside Hong Kong.

Leadership Training
The HKFYG has provided comprehensive leadership training for over 150,000 student leaders since 2000. Building on this solid foundation, the HKFYG has revitalised the former Fanling Magistracy and established the HKFYG Leadership Institute with a new lodge. The programmes of the Institute are targeted at secondary and tertiary students and young executives, which are under five Schools. Each school places importance on instilling Leadership Skills, developing Communication Abilities, enhancing an Understanding of China, ensuring Global Exchanges and encouraging Public Engagement. One such programme is “Hong Kong 200”, which nurtures student leaders with competency and commitment. There are also partnerships with some renowned global organisations, all of which enable local young leaders to learn from international peers.
