The next five years are a crucial period for Hong Kong to create new opportunities and achieve new developments. As a financial, shipping, and trading center, Hong Kong should fully leverage its advantages of being backed by the motherland and connected to the world. The programme will analyze how Hong Kong can deepen its cooperation with different regions in the mainland, such as Hainan and Fuzhou, play a role in supporting the national sustainable development goals, strategize the areas of long term development, and draw inspiration from the Two Sessions.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative. Since President Xi Jinping proposed the initiative in 2013, it has attracted more and more countries and people to participate, and has achieved tangible results, as well as gaining widespread recognition from the international community. The programme will analyze the spirit of the Belt and Road Initiative, and explore the opportunities for Hong Kong to integrate into the development of the Greater Bay Area, as well as the future of young people.
