HKUST Changemaker: skills and mindsets (Sep 2023)

The 12 workshop participants engaged in an insightful exploration of changemaking. They delved into defining what it means to be a changemaker and identified the essential qualities and mindsets required. The participants discussed how mindsets such as courage, determination, and proactive approaches are crucial for driving meaningful change.

In addition to discussions about the theory, the workshop also encouraged the participants to take concrete actions to develop their own changemaking abilities. They explored practical steps they could take to build up their "changemaking muscles" and acquire the necessary skills. This included things like seeking out opportunities to make an impact, learning and growing continuously, and cultivating a mindset of possibility.
