Community Builders
"Each life creates engless ripples" -Frank Herbert

Every conversation can create ripples of positive changes; it is a powerful way to build trust and relationships.  The Ripples Fellowship is a community for students who believe in the power of peer support. You will be equipped to lift each other up as a peer coach or a contributor to peer community projects. 


By participating in this community, you will:

  • Learn how to initiate coaching conversations that help others to grow through success and challenges
  • Practice your communication and coaching skills with support and feedback from trainers
  • Discover ways to build supportive peer communities in HKUST
Program Schedule and Application

The program consists of a series of face-to-face workshops and hands-on practice. Students who complete the program and demonstrated satisfactory engagement will receive a certificate in recognition of your efforts in learning and growing as a peer coach. Registration for our next series will open in 2026.

Program Subsidy Scheme

The Scheme is designed to encourage students to participate in endorsed co-curricular programs to learn outside classroom and contribute to the community. It provides a source of financial support to ensure that students who seek personal growth, community engagement and experiential learning opportunities can participate fully in the programs and are not disadvantage by financial reason.
