The DAB announced "District Governance Training Course"

April 13, 2023

The DAB is currently organizing a "District Governance Training Course." DAB Vice-chairman Holden Chow said the purpose of the course is to help implement good governance at the district level. It is hoped that district workers can further explore district governance and effectively promote good governance and improve governance capabilities in districts.

Chow pointed out that the enactment of the Hong Kong National Security Law, improvements to the electoral system, and the comprehensive implementation of “patriots administering Hong Kong” have provided an opportunity to finally achieve true good governance. It is hoped that this course can promote positive interactions and understanding between district workers and the government.

The course is divided into 14 modules. Secretary for Home and Youth Affairs Alice Mak, together with 5 department directors overseeing relevant policy areas, namely Housing, Transport, Social Welfare, Health and Food and Environmental Hygiene, as well as 18 District Officers, have agreed to teach in this course.

DAB Secretary-General Albert Wong believed the DAB can hold more district governance training courses in the future, share its experience in systematic talent training, and cooperate with other groups to continue providing suitable talent to implement “patriots administering Hong Kong” and enhance governance capabilities.
