“Towards 2025: Strategy and Action Plan to Prevent and Control Non-communicable Diseases in Hong Kong“ Community Engagement Funding Scheme – Briefing Sessions

7 November 2018

The Department of Health (DH) invited all District Councils to participate in and co-ordinate “Community Engagement Funding Scheme”. DH will allocate up to $250,000 for each District Council in 2019/20 for organizing community health promotion activities aimed at prevention and control of non-communicable diseases in the district level.

In order to provide the District's “Healthy City” organizations, local community groups and / or non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with an in-depth understanding of the requirements of the “Community Engagement Funding Scheme” to formulate the content of the health promotion activities, two briefing sessions were held by the Department of Health in King Lam Neighbourhood Community Centre on 5 Nov 2018 and Sheung Wan Civic Centre (Lecture Hall) on 7 Nov 2018 respectively. The well-responded briefing sessions facilitated the participants in planning the health promotion activities.

Moreover, two more briefing sessions will be held in January 2019. All associations / organizations are welcome to join in order to know more about the “Community Engagement Funding Scheme” and to clarify any relevant questions.
