New Theme for Link Sustainability Lab: Loop to Last – Unveiling the Circular Economy
Link Sustainability Lab, located in Lok Fu Place, is a not-for-profit educational project that is Hong Kong’s first sustainability education and collaboration platform in the local community. The Lab was launched in April 2023 and is open to the public free of charge.
Link Sustainability Lab is excited to unveil its latest theme: "Loop to Last - Unveiling the Circular Economy”. The new theme showcases how technological advancements have enabled the adoption of the circular economy and features some nature-based solutions to address the ecological crisis.
Diverse Scope with Interactive Features
In recent years, there has been an increasing push towards adopting a circular economy with the goal of creating a sustainable cycle that reintegrates used resources into the consumption and production of goods. This reduces resource depletion by allowing the Earth’s finite resources to be reused.
The Lab’s new theme features a range of topics including climate change, sustainable fashion, overpackaging, marine litter, recycling of e-waste, waste-to-energy, and nature-based solutions. It also offers various immersive and digital interactive games, enabling visitors to learn more about the circular economy in a fun and engaging way.
Collaborative Partnerships to Advance Sustainability
The Lab is a space where Link aims to drive community collaboration to work towards sustainability. Its circular economy content was curated in consultation with relevant Government departments and other organisations including the Environmental Protection Department, Plastic Ocean Foundation, the Business Environment Council, and teachers and students from the Vocational Training Council. Link has also worked with non-governmental organisations, social enterprises, and tertiary education institutions to offer more than 100 thematic free-of-charge workshops to the public.
