Vietnam Service Learning Trip (Jun 2026)
Fanny Ng (safannyng@ust.hk)
Children and youth in rural areas of Vietnam often lead simple lifestyles, with limited access to knowledge about the outside world, hindering their ability to discover and develop their true potential. After two successful visits in 2025, HKUST Connect continues its partnership with ECO Vietnam Group (EVG) and is excited to launch the third Service Learning Trip to Vietnam in June 2026. This trip aims to further support education and youth development in Tra Vinh province in the Mekong Delta.
EVG is a non-governmental, non-profit organization based in Vietnam, dedicated to delivering genuine benefits to local communities. Acting as a trusted bridge between volunteers, sponsors, and disadvantaged groups—including ethnic minorities in remote areas—EVG strives to improve the quality of life through authentic community projects.
Volunteers will dive into a rich cultural exchange, teaching local students while immersing themselves in Vietnam’s vibrant traditions. Through hands-on activities, meaningful interactions, and self-reflection, you’ll not only empower children and youth but also gain a deeper understanding of the local community. Get ready to be a part of this transformative journey and make a lasting impact with us!
You will be able to:
- Empower Vietnamese children and youth through various teaching activities and workshops
- Engage in cultural exchange and explore different aspects of the Vietnamese community
- Accelerate personal growth through self-reflection
- Share your experiences during and after the service trip to spread a caring message within the HKUST campus
If you would like to participate in the trip as a member of Organizing Committee, please refer to this page for more details.
Note 1:
To ensure the quality of service activities and to foster a positive team experience, students are expected to attend ALL pre-trip activities, including workshops and consultation meetings. Priority will be given to those who can commit to full attendance. Requests for absence due to academic course-related examinations will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The organizer reserves the right to terminate the participation of any student who fails to meet the above requirements, and the program fee will not be refunded.
