Cultural Tour

Keywords

To promote the urban commons movement in Hong Kong, the Centre for Cultural Research and Development (CCRD) strives to engage Lingnan students, working youth and the wider community to raise their awareness of community participation and cultivate an alternative socio-economic model. Our explorations into the concept of the commons include fair trade, cooperatives, social enterprise and community economy.

Vision

To be a community that promotes the knowledge and practice of alternative socio-economic models throughout Asia, promoting ethical consumption and sustainability for the benefit of small producers and the world.
