The Defeat Failure! Get Positive Programme
Hong Kong is one of the most competitive and stressful cities in the world, where nearly 60% of the population think they are overstressed (The University of HK Poll, 2007). As a result of this stressful environment, young people are often caught in the web of defeat and anxiety where their self-confidence and self-esteem are compromised. This further contributes to an internalized sense of failure as well as poor decision-making. The Defeat Failure! Get Positive! programme is in its third year of provision and has been instrumental in helping young people tackle stress and rebuild themselves. Using stimulating and interactive activities, circus arts, and critical discussions, this years’ training has also focused on assisting young people cope with the economic recession. If you want to join this programme, please email me at: faichan@kely.org.
