To create a comfortable space for students and to discuss the topic of life and death in a relaxed manner, this event will take the form of board games. Through this relaxing occasion, you can exchange your thoughts with peers and friends on life and death and, through various small games, explore positive values in life and learn about decision-making:

Activity 6: Life Education Talk
Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking seminar led by Dr. Pasu Ng Kwai-lun, a qualified registered professional embalmer and recipient of the 2020 Hong Kong Humanity Award. In this session, Dr. Ng will share his personal journey — from his early career as a CUHK-trained embalmer to becoming a passionate advocate for life and death education.
Through his unique perspective, participants will gain a deeper understanding of what life and death education entails, and why it plays a vital role in fostering compassion, dignity, and awareness in our society. The seminar will also explore end-of-life matters in Hong Kong, including local practices around funerals, burial traditions, and the evolving cultural attitudes toward death.
This is a rare opportunity to reflect on life’s most profound questions and engage in meaningful dialogue about how we live, how we die, and how we remember.
