The Constitutional and Mainland Affairs Bureau (CMAB) is inviting a new round of applications under the Basic Law Promotion Activity Sponsorship Scheme and Basic Law Promotion Research Sponsorship Scheme (Sponsorship Scheme).
The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government has been promoting the Basic Law to members of the public through various channels. The Sponsorship Scheme aims to promote the Basic Law among different sectors of the community and encourage different groups or organisations to conduct research on ways to further enhance the promotion of the Basic Law, with a view to enhancing public understanding of and support for the "one country, two systems" principle and the Basic Law.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the promulgation of the Basic Law. With the aim of encouraging different groups to organise events of a larger scale and to conduct research in greater depth, the amount of sponsorship to be granted to each project in this round of applications will be increased to a maximum of $800,000. All groups are welcome to apply for the funding scheme.
Application information can be downloaded from the Basic Law website (www.basiclaw.gov.hk/en/sponsorship/index.html). The deadline for application is March 31.
For enquiries, please contact the Secretariat of the Sponsorship Scheme at 2810 2106.
