Eat To-Gather Programme for Locals and Non-locals: Cultural Exchange Beyond a Dining Table (Deadline: 16 September 2018)
Eating together as a family is highly valued in the Chinese culture. By connecting non-local students, local students and local host families (non-residential), the Eat To-Gather Programme aims to facilitate non-local students’ adaptation to life in Hong Kong and promote cultural exchange and integration. In the Programme, participants will:
· Enjoy at least one homey meal in the host family to have an authentic taste of family life in Hong Kong;
· Take part in family gatherings/ activities arranged by the host families or CEDARS; and
· Have loads of fun!
Local students can apply to be either “Foodmates” or “Hosts”, while non-local students are invited to join as “Non-local Pals”. Each local foodmate will be paired up with 1 to 2 non-local pal(s) and 1 host family throughout the year.
Apply NOW to enjoy the cultural exchange beyond a dining table!
Programme Duration: October 2018 – April 2019
