由青協領袖學院舉辦， Finech未來領袖夏令營讓參加者深入瞭解金融服務以及金融科技革新的多種方式。他們將會對金融科技有更深入的認識，參觀金融科技公司，並在工作坊瞭解金融科技產品背後的運作原理，並就如何利用新興技術解決金融行業問題去提出自己的想法。參加者亦會在夏令營期間與同伴一起準備一個金融科技的專題研習活動，培養團隊合作、溝通、說服力和演講等未來技能，從而充實自己。

Organised by The HKFYG Leadership Institute, the Fintech Future Leaders Summer Camp is a unique opportunity to gain insights of both financial services and the plethora of ways that technology is overhauling the industry.  Participants will develop a deep appreciation for FinTech, visit amazing Fintech companies who are changing the world, get hands-on experience with technology workshops to see how things work under the hood, and even come up with own ideas about how emergent technology can be used to solve all sorts of problems.  Beyond these wonderful learning opportunities, participants will enrich themselves through working on an exciting pitch event throughout the camp with peers, where they will develop soft skills such as teamwork, communication, persuasion and presentation.

The transition from school to work is challenging for everyone, perhaps more so with young people with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). However, with one-on-one coaching and group support, autistic students do not need to feel that they could be left behind, instead, they could focus on developing their potential for the next stage of their lives.

Funded by The Community Chest, the HKFYG School Social Work Unit is launching FARMily – Shine. Engagement. Nurture (SEN), where the name stands for Farm and Family, a two-year programme for autistic students in years F.3 to F.6. 

The point and purpose of the programme is to take full advantage of both the Federation’s Organic Farm and Hydroponic Farm, which will give the participants an opportunity to learn about farming, outdoor camping, career planning and other life skills. By merging the therapeutic benefits of farming with residential living and working together, it is believed that the young students will also be able to enhance their own sense of self-care and self-value, all leading towards a resilient attitude for future employability and community connections. On-site internships will be available and those who show promise and interest could even be considered for part-time or full-time positions on the farms after the Programme. Counselling will also be available to parents and caretakers to help them cope and release stress.   

香港青年協會社會創新及青年創業部將於7月14日至7月30日，專為中一至中四學生舉辦暑期夏令營。今年主題為「創業與社會創新」，學員可以了解現今本港社會問題，亦可以學習如何運用創新思維模式，構思改善社會問題的方案；仲會同初創公司創辦人會面，了解他們創業經歷和心得。
