BESGO, CUHK

BESGO, a program backed by CUHK Business School, aims to educate and inspire the next generation of change-makers on how social good, social innovation, and sustainable practices can shape businesses and society’s future. With activities like training workshops, talks, and real-world projects, BESGO helps deepen students’ understanding of social needs and sustainability issues. By connecting educators, business professionals, social innovators, and future change-makers, BESGO fosters collaboration and creates shared value towards building a better future for all.

Our sustainability goals for 2023:

1. Increase the awareness and understanding of social and environmental issues among students and participants by providing educational resources, workshops, and field visits.
2. Foster partnerships and collaborations with local and international organizations that align with BESGO’s mission and values, and promote sustainability and social good.
3. Engage and empower students to take action and create positive social and environmental impacts through BESGO’s programs and activities, and provide opportunities for them to apply their knowledge and skills in real-world projects.

Our initiative in accelerating sustainable development in Hong Kong:

BESGO has organized various activities to promote social innovation, social good, and sustainable practices. In the past, we have designed and produced teaching and learning materials, conducted seminars and workshops, and facilitated visits to community and social enterprises. We also published feature articles and teaching cases, and presented at local and international conferences. These initiatives aim to raise awareness, deepen understanding, and provide opportunities for students to create real impact and foster collaboration for a better future.
