Each year, World Vision Hong Kong organises study trips for schools and churches to take a closer look at the needs of the poor around the world. These trips provide opportunities for participants to interact with the poor and gain a new perspective of their lives. Through such experiences, we hope that participants will come to appreciate the abundance they have, and be motivated to care for the less fortunate people through action.
Do you want to meet some friends in developing countries? We encourage your school to enrich your students with knowledge on poverty by participating in our school talks and school famines before joining a study trip.

Honestly, the experience influences me much more than I have expected...I had a chance to appreciate the simple life of the local people in Duchang...and I realise that being simple is the most effective way to be happy... 2007 Duchang Study Trip |

All in all, I learned that many things in the world are a privilege and we should not take resources for granted such as water and food. In Mongolia, even a drop of water can save a person’s life, and so we really have to treasure what we get. The trip let me know there are always someone who are more unfortunate than you and we should not moan and grumble. Instead, we should take life positively and be motivated about our life. 2007 Mongolia Study Trip |
