Hong Kong Happiness Summit 2024
#BreakingThroughtheWavesforHongKongHappiness
The Hong Kong Happiness Summit is the first of its kind in the city. Hosted by HK.WeCARE, it marks a significant milestone after nearly a decade of measuring and monitoring the happiness levels of Hong-kongers. As part of HK.WeCARE’s efforts to raise awareness and share knowledge on happiness studies, the occasion serves as a two-day reflective journey bringing together budding experts in the research behind happiness and wellbeing with a local audience to redefine and reimagine happiness. Activities and sharings in the event are designed to provoke participants to explore positive thinking patterns and practical tools in all areas of life such as personal mental strength, happy childhood, family harmony, workplace enjoyment, and supportive aging - while residing in the bustling yet
high-pressure city of Hong Kong.
We invite you, as leaders of this City, to embark with us on this journey at this Hong Kong’s First Happiness Summit—a journey where we become the architects of happiness for our city, a journey that seeks to unlock the Happiness of this City we call Home, a journey to rediscovering the spirit of Hong Kong's "happily ever after."
Story Behind
We may come from different walks of life and diverse sectors in Hong Kong, but we share a common belief—to uplift our communities, spread joy and make our Home a better place.
Simple as it may seem, Hong Kong’s Happiness Index has plummeted to a record-low of 5.88 out of 10 in 2023 but it did not battered us. Instead It inspires us to care further and deeper, uncovering the reasons behind happiness disparities;
to care to discover how we can flourish in life; and to care enough to be a positive force for our City, uplifting and inspiring one another. Our studies have revealed that empowering ourselves to find happiness within is the strongest force among all and with 70% of our time at work and 30% of our time with families, We believe that each individual's happiness holds the power capable of transforming families, workplaces, and communities. Your happiness matters, not only to yourself but to those around you. Rather than waiting for happiness to happen, We believe together, we can craft the happiness heartbeat of Hong Kong, ultimately celebrating a thriving and harmonious Home for all.
