Jockey Club "Tree Upcycling" Youth Co-creation Project is organised by HKDI DESIS Lab (Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability), with sponsorship from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, a tree upcycling and sustainable development project co-created by youths. It encourages young people to learn about local trees, integrate social innovative design and craftsmanship, regenerate local tree resources, and promote the social concept of "harmony between human and tree".
Founded in summer 2013, the HKDI Design for Social Innovation and Sustainability (DESIS) Lab for Social Design Research is a new cross-disciplinary action research group at HKDI. Its aim is to set up a research platform for social design, an emerging field advocating a new approach to design: ‘designers as enablers of social change’. It is part of the DESIS International Network, which aims to advance international knowledge in design for the social good and to develop social practices that benefit Hong Kong society.
