Cathay Pacific Airways has announced that it will sponsor 40 students from around the world to take part in the new Cathay Pacific Green Explorer programme - an eight-day programme that will take place in Hong Kong and Sichuan Province in China.
The aim of the programme, which runs from 13 to 20 August 2011 is to give the young participants a better understanding of environmental issues and the importance of conversation.
The Cathay Pacific Green Explorer 2011 programme, for students aged 16 to 18, is launched as part of Cathay Pacific’s ongoing commitment to sustainable development and corporate social responsibility. The airline is honoured to have Mr Edward Yau Tang-wah, Secretary for the Environment in the Hong Kong SAR Government, as Patron of the programme.
Cathay Pacific Chief Executive John Slosar said: “We are delighted to launch the Green Explorer programme to help broaden the horizons and expand the world view of young participants from around our network. We hope the delegates will take home some important messages relating to environmental, conservation and sustainable development issues and apply them in their own lives and home country.
