甚麼是 USSP ？
What Is the USSP?
USSP 與本地大學合作，向大學生提供參與亞洲不同保育項目的前線工作機會，鼓勵他們投身保育及生態研究工作。每
年均會有不同研究團隊指導學生推行保育項目，以及參與公眾教育活動。學生還有機會與本地及海外保育專家會面及交
流，以及學習製作訊息圖表，參與媒體訪問及攝製紀錄片。
The USSP partners with local universities to give students frontline experience through different conservation projects in
Asia and inspire them to pursue careers in conservation and ecological research. Each year, students in the programme
are paired with research teams who guide them to assist in carrying out conservation projects and engage in running
public awareness campaigns. They also get the chance to meet and talk to local and foreign conservationists, create
infographics, and even participate in media interviews and documentaries.
