Companions of Social Inclusion (COSI) is one of the programmes under the Jockey Club Enhancing Youth Empathy Project through Immersive Visualisation. COSI aims to provide a series of training workshops and learning activities to enable Hong Kong youths to cultivate cognitive and affective understanding of the challenges, barriers, frustrations and possible discriminations faced by ethnic minority groups in our community.
COSI will enhance students’ empathy and capacity to apply their knowledge and skills to design innovative solutions, both technological (particularly with the use of virtual reality technologies) and non-technological ones, to promote an inclusive society and empower the minority groups to enhance their coping skills and management capability in core domains of their everyday life.
