CORPORATE SUSTAINABILITY 42 During the year, a wide range of programmes have been organised for young people to inspire them to explore issues related to urban renewal. The Urban Renewal Exploration Centre (UREC), which was set up in 2009 with an aim to provide information to students about urban renewal in Hong Kong, was relocated to H6 CONET in late October 2017. After being revamped with new approaches and presentations via interactive means, the UREC continued to inspire students to understand urban renewal issues from various perspectives. In order to extend its reach, the new UREC is open to the public during lunchtime. Pre- booked guided tours can be organised for both group CONTRIBUTE TO OUR SOCIETY The URA supports various programmes to improve the social inclusiveness and social mobility of the under-resourced. We are dedicated to providing opportunities to youth for learning and development; to bring love and care to the residents; to instil arts and culture in the old districts, and to create a sustainable built environment to serve the community. Inspiring Youth The URA needs the concerted efforts of society to tackle urban decay in a sustainable way. Through collaboration and partnership programmes with various organisations, we have reached out to the community and schools to introduce URA’s work and the significance of urban renewal to youngsters and the general public. Interactive games in the Urban Renewal Exploration Centre help inspire students to understand URA’s work.
