Speak, Connect, Inspire: Storytelling & Tour Design Training for HKUST Student Ambassadors

Commissioned by the Dean of Students’ Office (DSTO) at HKUST, Walk in Hong Kong developed a four-part training programme to equip student leaders with the skills to become inspiring campus ambassadors. Titled “From Stories to Tours: HKUST Campus Narrators Programme”, the initiative focused on design thinking, oral history, storytelling, and public speaking — all essential tools for crafting engaging and authentic guided experiences.

The programme culminated in an off-campus Kowloon Walled City & Food Adventure, where participants explored the intersection of history, culture, and personal narratives through an immersive, game-based tour. Students left the programme with sharpened communication skills, a deeper sense of HKUST identity, and the confidence to share stories that resonate. This project highlights our ability to create meaningful education and leadership programmes through place-based, narrative-driven learning.
