******************************************************************************************
     The Home and Youth Affairs Bureau (HYAB) held Hong Kong's five-year plan Thematic Consultation Session - Youth Development today (May 27) at HYAB JC Y Cube, a new interactive space for young people located on the fourth floor of Youth Square in Chai Wan. The consultation session was conducted in an in-person and online hybrid format to gather views from about 200 representatives from the Youth Development Commission (YDC), district youth committees, Youth Link, YDC Youth Ambassadors, and various youth organisations in respect of youth development in Hong Kong's five-year plan.
      
     The fourth session of the 14th National People's Congress approved the Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the People's Republic of China (Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan) in March 2026. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) is proactively aligning with the Outline of the 15th Five-Year Plan and is drawing up its first Hong Kong's five-year plan, which should take a macro view and be strategic and forward-looking.
      
     Speaking at the thematic consultation session, the Secretary for Home and Youth Affairs, Miss Alice Mak, said that the HKSAR Government attaches great importance to youth development. In line with the 15th Five-Year Plan and on the basis of the Youth Development Blueprint, the Government is striving to nurture a new generation of youth equipped with a global perspective, a positive mindset, and an affection for Hong Kong and the country, who will steadfastly uphold the "one country, two systems" principle, actively participate in the integration into the overall national development, and contribute to the long-term prosperity and stability of the city.
      
     Through the thematic consultation session, the HYAB gathered the insights and expectations of stakeholders to facilitate the HKSAR Government's preparation of the first Hong Kong's five-year plan.
