This year, the Cultural Affairs Bureau (IC) continues to collaborate with the General Association of Chinese Students of Macau to organise the participation of a group of 40 students in a large-scale youth exchange event, namely the "MaD Forum" (Make a Difference) to be held in the Kwai Tsing Theatre, in Hong Kong from 31st January 2015 to 1st February 2015. The organiser aims to encourage local youngsters to explore their potential to respond to contemporary challenges with innovative ideas, and build a creative civil society. Under the theme "Village Reimagined", the MaD Forum 2015 attracts 1,300 youngsters from Asia to be "MaD 2015 Villagers", joining together to build a village. The participants are required to plan various activities and optimise the living environment with their creativity. They will visit art studios, social enterprises and farms, in addition to publishing their reviews in the Village Newspaper. The event also features the "MaD 2015 Free Market", in which participants will, together with a number of cultural workers of Hong Kong communities, establish a market without money transactions allowing the free sharing of ideas and goods. The three-day MaD Forum has invited experts and scholars from Denmark, U.S., U.K., Holland, France and Taiwan to share their experiences in the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as other thematic activities. Programme highlights of the MaD Forum includes the film The Human Scale screening , forums and chat rooms like "Market of Asia + Community Market – creative exchange, intercultural dialogue, art experience" and excursions like "Artwalker – Sowing Art in the Community", etc. Since 2011, IC has been collaborating with the General Association of Chinese Students of Macau in recruiting local students and youths to join the MaD Forum, providing Macao youths with more opportunities to study and exchange ideas and broaden their horizons, thus cultivating talents for Macao's cultural and creative industries.
