Hong Kong Future Pioneers (HKFP) 2024

​Hong Kong Future Pioneers 2024

The theme for HKFP this year is "Trails of Nostalgia: Uniting Through Hong Kong Collective Memories". Our theme this year revolves around collective memories of Hong Kong, which has stirred up heated discussions in recent years. From neighbourhood relations and architectural designs, to traditional festivals and food, these collective memories together build up the identity of our shared past. However, with advancements in technology and changes in the way of living for millennials and ‘Generation Z’, it is sometimes unavoidable that many communal cultures and collective memories may be lost in time between generations.
