Lost and Found迷失‧尋找…..中

#artjam#workshop#storiesundertheumbrella
GE made its debut ConFest last October in sowing the seeds of change and fostering ChangeMakers’ creative and socially conscious spirit. Through dialogues, forums, concert and street party, we explored ideas along the theme of social innovation and spatial justice. Despite our society is at the crossroads and facing momentous confrontations, nothing will stop us from searching.
去年通識首次舉辦ChangeMakers ConFest，以反思香港的土地公義、空間分配、傳統商業運作模式，尋求以創新思維推動社會公平發展。
經歷一年的探索，香港的經濟依舊由各式各樣的霸權主導、舊社區仍然被消失中、社會撕裂加劇、煙霧瀰漫……
可是並沒有動搖我們的決心，因為改變的種子早已撒下。我們明白：尋找是一個漫長而又看不見盡頭的過程，幾經迷失、重新找回、再迷失……
今年ConFest以 Lost and Found為主題，繼續從自身出發，無懼在跌宕起伏的國度裡記下成長的痕跡，以和平、創意和關懷為我們的夢想護航。

What is ConFest?
Conference x Festival.
We explore new knowledge and possibilities while enjoying arts and cultural performances.
ConFest was originated in 1976 when some Australian ChangeMakers sought new ways of thinking and actions for social innovations through bringing together of subcultures of alternative movement.
將節日 (festival) 的氣氛注入研討會(conference)，在親切輕鬆的氛圍中蒐集意見，尋求出路是ConFest 的態度。
