The Home and Youth Affairs Bureau (HYAB) and the Youth Development Commission (YDC) jointly launched a new round of the HYAB Funding Scheme for Youth Positive Thinking Activities (2025-27) today (January 24). Eligible non-governmental organisations (NGOs) are invited to submit applications.
The Government attaches great importance to youth development. The HYAB and the YDC launched the first round of the Funding Scheme under the Youth Development Fund in late 2022. The Funding Scheme subsidises NGOs to organise projects that are conducive to nurturing young people's positive thinking, particularly projects which involve cross-sectoral collaboration, or are youth-led that could drive community building. The Funding Scheme aims to promote the awareness of young people's physical and mental well-being, nurture their positive thinking and cultivate their positive values; and enable them to become a new generation with a sense of responsibility and aspirations, and a willingness to contribute to the development of the country and Hong Kong.
Details of the new round of the Funding Scheme and the application form are available on the YDC website (ydc.gov.hk/en/programmes/positive/positive.html). Interested NGOs should submit their applications on or before noon on March 7.
