With support from businesses and community stakeholders, Sham Shui Po has become an exemplar of resilient neighbourhoods. Breaking away from the beneficiary-giver dichotomy, gaaifongs are empowered to shape their livelihoods and be champions of their neighbourhoods. How did the systematic shift come about, and how could it be realised?
在企業和社區持份者的支持下,深水埗已成為韌性社區的典範。深水埗街坊打破了傳統受助者與施予者的框框,積極塑造自己的生活方式,成為社區先鋒。究竟他們如何令改變萌芽,進而實踐呢?
