2017-18 博群帶你入社區 A Walk in Community with I·CARE 2017-18

(Please scroll down for the English version)


參與社會事務、扶助弱勢,除了傳統義工服務、或大型的社會運動,其實還有很多既創新又有成效的途徑。今個學年,博群找來多個團體帶同學走訪社區,在地體驗如何通過新穎手法介入平權、共享、環保、公共建設等議題,一同實踐大學生參與社會及公民事務。

 
第四回

本年度第四次「博群帶你入社區」將於 3 月 3 日舉行。是次到訪的社區爲天水圍,參加的中大同學可認識該區協作平台「天姿作圍」之運作,並跟其婦女一起製作果醬,聆聽她們的經驗。「天姿作圍」由一群居住天水圍的基層婦女組成,旨在結合居民的智慧與技能,創造一個可持續發展的社區經濟系統。活動詳情如下:

日期:2018年3月3日(星期六) 時間:下午2時至6時

語言:粵語

名額:10個

 
第三回

博群全人發展中心定期帶同學走訪社區,一同探索大學生參與社會及公民事務的可能性。本年度第三次「博群帶你入社區」將於本月與同學到訪屯門區探訪嚤囉山村,認識其發展情況,以及協助服務該村的雜貨社企——「良由集貨」售賣日常用品,與村民互動,關心他們的需要。


「良由集貨」是一間與各區非牟利機構合作的雜貨社企,每月定時定點到訪各區的偏遠地點,向該處坊眾售賣拆散的大包裝米、油、鹽、生抽、洗衣粉等日常生活用品;坊眾一般會自備容器,按需要的數量購買物品。「良由集貨」直接從供應商買貨,免卻包裝,將成本降低,以減輕坊眾的生活開支。


「良由集貨」在屯門與仁愛堂有固定合作,後者負責宣傳及招募義工,定期到訪嚤囉山村;兩者在售賣日常用品時,亦會共同推動村民參與該村的社區改善計劃。


活動詳情如下:

時間:下午2時至5時(下午1時45分於屯門西鐵站集合)
