【Event Promotion】 Invitation to "Connecting London & Hong Kong: Scaling Urban Climate Solutions Across Markets"

As part of London Climate Action Week 2026, Civic Exchange, in partnership with Capacity-building Alliance of Sustainable Investment (CASI) and the 大灣區碳中和協會 GBA Carbon Neutrality Association, invites you to a high-level dialogue exploring how two leading global cities—London and Hong Kong—can collaborate to scale practical urban climate solutions across markets.

With a distinguished delegation from Hong Kong joining London during the week, this event will bring together policymakers, financial institutions, engineering leaders, professional services firms, and international organisations to address shared urban challenges facing mature, high-density, and ageing cities.

🔎 Key themes include:
• Aligning standards, finance, and policy across jurisdictions
• Translating global frameworks into implementable urban resilience
• Mobilising capital at scale for urban transformation
• Scaling retrofit, resilience, and nature-based solutions

🎤 Featured Speakers & Panels:
• Keynote session featuring Dr Ma Jun (CASI), Mr Charles Karangwa ( IUCN), and Ms Cristina Gamboa (World Green Building Council)
• Panel discussions on London–Hong Kong collaboration, Nature-based Solutions, and financing the urban transition
• Networking reception to connect with cross-sector leaders shaping the future of sustainable cities

This event positions London and Hong Kong not as separate case studies—but as partners addressing global climate implementation challenges relevant to both developed and emerging markets.

If you’re engaged in sustainable finance, urban resilience, green building, policy innovation, or climate implementation, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
📅Wednesday, 24 June 2026 | 3:00 PM – 7:00 PM (Registration from 2:30 PM)
📍The Great Room, RSA House, London

【Youth Engagement︱與青少年交流】思匯政策研究所於2026年5月29日有幸獲邀前往 SKH Tsoi Kung Po Secondary School 聖公會蔡功譜中學，為約200名中四和中五學生舉辦紀錄片《築橋者：以基於自然的解決方案探索亞馬遜與香港之間的連結》試映會。On 29 May 2026, Civic Exchange was honoured to visit SKH Tsoi Kung Po Secondary School to conduct a test screening of the documentary ‘People of Bridges: Explores the Connection Between the Amazon and Hong Kong’ for about 200 Form 4 and Form 5 students.

思匯社區營造助理葉婼堯在分享環節中分享了她深入亞馬遜雨林的親身經歷，並與學生探討為何亞馬遜雨林與我們每個人都息息相關。作為全球物種最豐富的生態系統之一，亞馬遜雨林不僅儲存大量碳、協助調節全球氣候，更是原住民族的家園，他們在守護生態環境上扮演至關重要的角色。

During the sharing session, Ms Charlie Yip, our Community Empowerment Assistant, reflected on her experiences in the Amazon and explored why the Amazon rainforest matters to all of us. As one of the world's richest ecosystems, the Amazon rainforest stores vast amounts of carbon, helps regulate the global climate, and is home to Indigenous communities who play a vital role as environmental stewards.

透過這部紀錄片，同學發現亞馬遜與香港的連結遠比他們想像中更為緊密。從氣候變化的深遠影響，到植樹造林、濕地和紅樹林等有助降低水浸風險的基於自然的解決方案，影片深刻呈現出生態系統、在地社區與全球城市之間千絲萬縷的連繫。

Through the documentary, students discovered that Amazon and Hong Kong are more connected than they may imagine. From climate change impacts to nature-based solutions such as reforestation, wetlands, and mangroves that help reduce flooding risks, the film highlights how ecosystems, communities, and global cities are deeply interconnected.

播映結束後，我們亦向學生介紹環境和可持續發展領域中多元的職業發展藍圖，藉此讓大家明白無論未來投身哪一個行業或專業，每個人都能夠發揮影響力，為環境帶來正面的改變。

Following the screening, we also introduced students to the diverse career pathways within the environmental and sustainability sectors, demonstrating that everyone can contribute to positive change through different industries and professions.

衷心感謝聖公會蔡功譜中學的邀請，讓我們有機會與一眾充滿活力的學生交流。思匯期盼這次深具意義的分享，能在同學們心中播下好奇和負責任的種子，共同為更可持續的未來孕育希望。

A heartfelt thank you to SKH Tsoi Kung Po Secondary School for the invitation and opportunity to engage with students. We hope this meaningful sharing has planted seeds of curiosity, responsibility, and hope for a more sustainable future.

如各學校、大專院校或企業機構有意舉辦是次紀錄片試映會，請與本團隊聯絡，共同探討未來的合作機遇。

Should your school, university, or corporate organisation be interested in hosting a test screening of this documentary, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please do get in touch with our team to explore potential collaborative opportunities.

【Event Recap︱活動回顧】思匯非常榮幸能參與由機電工程署主辦的2026年香港「氫能週」和國際氫能發展論壇2026。作為氫能週的策略合作夥伴，思匯於2026年5月20日合辦「淨零青年論壇：連繫全球青年能源領袖與香港工程人才，推動新興亞洲能源轉型」。

Civic Exchange was delighted to contribute to Hydrogen Week 2026 and the International Hydrogen Development Symposium 2026, hosted by the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department (EMSD), HKSAR Government. As the strategic partner for Hydrogen Week, Civic Exchange proudly co-organised the Net Zero Youth Forum: Connecting Global Young Energy Leaders with Hong Kong’s Engineering Talent to Enable Emerging Asia’s Energy Transition on 20 May 2026.

論壇上午環節匯聚14位來自內地、新加坡、馬來西亞、泰國和孟加拉等地具備多元專業背景的嘉賓講者，深入探討新興亞洲地區能源轉型的最新發展。討論橫跨新能源技術與應用藍圖、可持續金融及投資，以及培育未來能源和可持續發展領袖必備的技能。各場討論為與會者剖析亞洲能源轉型的實際現況，為下午的討論奠定堅實的背景基礎。

The morning brought together 14 speakers from the Chinese mainland, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Bangladesh with diverse backgrounds and expertise to explore the evolving energy transition landscape in Emerging Asia, covering new energy technologies and deployment pathways, sustainable finance and investment, and the skills needed to empower future energy and sustainability leaders. These sessions provided valuable insight into the on-the-ground realities of Emerging Asia’s energy transitions, helping to ground subsequent discussions in the lived contexts of the region.

到了下午，我們安排46位青年專才分組進行圓桌會議，包括工程師、金融業者和研究員等，就香港如何助力新興亞洲地區的能源轉型踴躍交流。與會者共同梳理目前窒礙推動進程和跨界合作上所面臨的主要障礙，並思考香港應如何善用「超級聯繫人」與「超級增值人」的獨特優勢。論壇最後總結各組的討論成果，並為未來的行動提出務實建議。

In the afternoon, our 46 young professionals including engineers, finance professional and researcher led the conversation in roundtable discussions, exchanging ideas on how Hong Kong can contribute to Emerging Asia’s energy transition. Participants reflected on key barriers to progress and collaboration, and considered how Hong Kong could best leverage its role as a super-connector and super-value-adder. The forum concluded with group reflections and practical recommendations for next steps.

社會的進步不能單靠技術發展，更有賴不同學科、機構和地域之間的人才通力合作。是次論壇成功把區域視野與香港優勢結合，我們期盼各與會者能以此為契機，將論壇上的交流與連繫轉化為未來的合作機遇。

Progress is not only driven by technologies, but by people working together across disciplines, institutions, and borders. The forum connected regional perspectives with Hong Kong’s strengths; we hope that participants will build upon these conversations and connections for future collaboration.

在此，思匯特別感謝何鴻毅家族香港基金對本項目的鼎力支持，以及機電工程署的緊密合作。我們由衷感謝所有嘉賓講者和參與者的真知灼見，並期待今後繼續合作。

Thank you to The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Hong Kong for supporting this initiative, and to EMSD for partnering with us. We are sincerely grateful to all our speakers and participants for sharing valuable insights, and look forward to continued cooperation.

🌍We are pleased to launch our Hong Kong’s Climate Action Plan 2026 White Paper and Public Survey. The paper highlights the urgent physical, economic, and systemic risks Hong Kong faces from climate change — from rising temperatures and extreme weather to supply chain disruption and long term economic impacts. It also outlines new opportunities for the city to lead in areas such as carbon markets, adaptation planning, circular economy development, and nature based solutions.

思匯很高興於本週發布《香港2026年氣候行動藍圖：白皮書及公眾意見調查》，重點闡述氣候變化為香港帶來迫在眉睫的實體、經濟和系統風險，涵蓋氣溫上升、極端天氣、供應鏈受阻和長期經濟影響等。同時，白皮書亦概述香港在多個領域發揮領導作用的新機遇，當中包括碳市場、規劃如何適應氣候變化、循環經濟發展，以及基於自然的解決方案等。

As part of this launch, we are inviting professionals across Hong Kong’s ESG, sustainability, finance, policy, and built environment sectors to share their perspectives through an anonymous survey. Your insights will directly inform our recommendations to the HKSAR Government ahead of the 2026 review of the Climate Action Plan.

為配合是次發布，我們誠邀本港從事環境、社會及管治（ESG）、可持續發展、金融、公共政策和建造環境等各界專業人士，以匿名問卷分享見解。諸位的寶貴意見將成為我們在政府於2026年檢討《氣候行動藍圖》時，向當局提交政策建議的重要依據。

🔗 Take the survey here︱問卷連結: https://ust.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_1O1u0JbR7EA138y
