Service-Learning Education Capacity Enhancement Scheme – 2-Year Thematic Service Projects (2017 and 2018)

The Service-Learning Education Capacity Enhancement Scheme (the “Scheme”) is funded by the Lee Hysan Foundation with the aim of consolidating and enhancing PolyU’s Service-Learning (SL) program and effectuation through a sustainable and integrated platform. The objectives of the Scheme are:

• To consolidate PolyU’s SL experience of developing impactful and sustainable service projects for the local community;
• To build up local SL model(s) to promote learning and teaching of SL among higher education institutions in HK; and
• To bring in successful PolyU alumni in the field to promote tripartite collaboration among the university, alumni and students in serving the community.

The funding for 2-year Thematic Service Projects (2017 and 2018) is now open for application. Only credit-bearing SL subjects with local projects that bring a tangible benefit to the service beneficiaries and that are currently NOT receiving additional funding from sources other than the GUR funding will be considered. Each project should involve at least a team of 40 PolyU students per year. The funding will be approved for two years in principle, subject to the submission of annual progress reports with clear evidence of impact. The maximum funding is HK$60,000 per project per year.
