“Planning a Brighter Future” Life Planning Workshop was organized for secondary school students to understand the importance of financial management. Through “Life Theatre”, participating secondary school students were exposed to a virtual reality. They had to make relevant financial decisions when they encounter various needs among different life stages.
Our HKUST volunteers assisted in facilitating the implementation of the simulation and group discussion session in order to simulate students to reflect on their attitudes towards financial planning.
