CUHK Bridge to China Team: Progress Update |
|||||||||
|
CUHK Bridge to China Team is a university volunteering team formed under this Centre with the support and guidance from Wu Zhi Qiao (Bridge to China) Charitable Foundation. Since 2009, the team has participated in and organised numerous bridge building projects, village investigation trips and public health programmes with the help of CUHK students. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has precludes the team from partnering its cooperating institutions to carry out services in the Mainland last year and at present, members of it do not give up chances to enhancing themselves and to joining the local construction project lined up by the Wu Zhi Qiao (Bridge to China) Charitable Foundation for the first time. On the 2nd of last month, the CUHK Bridge to China Team conducted an online team building activity namely “Gansu Cultural Day”. Through interactive games, participants had enhanced their mutual understanding and fostered a strong esprit de corps. At the same time, they deepened their knowledge of Gansu where they are supposed to launch bridge building works in future. As for the local construction project, core members of the CUHK Bridge to China Team assisted in rebuilding the community kitchen and repairing the earth kiln in Nam Chung at northern New Territories from January to April of this year in order to facilitate cooking by the villagers and volunteers. They learnt from the volunteers of Wu Zhi Qiao (Bridge to China) Charitable Foundation the green construction practices and mending techniques. Together they made mud bricks and repaired some exterior walls. This Centre will continue walking with the CUHK Bridge to China Team to develop the community in remote areas and improving people’s living condition on the Mainland.
