The Jockey Club Collaborative Project for Inclusive Employment
The importance of unity of knowledge and action has been raised long ago by Confucius in The Analects. As explained by the Ming dynasty thinker Wang Yangming, “becoming aware plants the seed of action, taking action is the fruit of knowledge”.
Our Aim
The Jockey Club Collaborative Project for Inclusive Employment aspires to not only raise stakeholders’ awareness and knowledge on inclusive employment, but also inspire them to take action and become advocates for inclusive employment, contributing to social inclusion. The project aims to facilitate the five partners (CareER, Heep Hong Society, SAHK, St. James Settlement, and The University of Hong Kong) with a diverse range of expertise to break away from the traditional ways of working, create opportunities to experiment with different forms of collaboration and foster the sharing of information, networks, creativity, knowledge and skills, and other resources. We trust that such collaboration can improve the quality and effectiveness of services, which will ultimately lead to the raising of societal awareness and furthering the cause of inclusive employment, achieving unity of knowledge and action.
The Jockey Club Collaborative Project for Inclusive Employment
The Jockey Club Collaborative Project for Inclusive Employment (the Project) began a new phase in September 2024 with continued support from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. The three-year Project adopts a stakeholder-based and collaborative approach to attaining inclusive employment for people with disabilities (PWD). In addition to raising awareness and knowledge of inclusive employment, the Project aspires to encourage members of society to translate knowledge into actions and defy conventional conceptions of PWD job types to increase their work opportunities. We hope that their talents can be recognized and their contributions appreciated.
The Project is a joint effort of The University of Hong Kong, Ebenezer School and Home for the Visually Impaired, The Education University of Hong Kong, Heep Hong Society, Hong Kong PHAB Association, New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association, SAHK, and St. James' Settlement. The project organizations will walk with relevant stakeholders on a journey to explore and implement sustainable and diverse inclusive solutions. The destination is a civilized society that enshrines humanity and bolsters an inclusive employment ecosystem.
