‘Promoting Family Wellbeing: from Two Mega Family Projects to Future Multi-sector Collaborations’ Symposium 2022
On 17 September 2022, the School of Public Health hosted the ‘Promoting Family Wellbeing: from Two Mega Family Projects to Future Multi-sector Collaborations’ Symposium to present the remarkable achievements of the FAMILY: A Jockey Club Initiative for a Harmonious Society (“FAMILY Project”) and the Jockey Club SMART Family-Link Project (“JCSFL Project”).
Adopting a public health approach, the Projects have promoted family wellbeing and the use of information and communications technology (ICT) in family services in Hong Kong, with hundreds of collaborators and millions of beneficiaries over the past 14 years, overcoming barriers to services arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Symposium was well attended by more than 200 in-person and virtual participants including partners from The Hong Kong Jockey Club and NGOs. Speakers shared experiences and successes of these two Projects and their vision of promoting family wellbeing with multi-sector collaborations and ICT use.
