English is an international language, and fluency in it is one of the keys to success in the world today. Young people who strive to compete and excel in the global arena must learn how to communicate in English with confidence. As their fluency improves, opportunities will also widen. With an aim to foster self confidence in English public speaking among the young people of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups (HKFYG) is organising "The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups Standard Chartered Hong Kong English Public Speaking Contest". The two objectives of the contest are to enhance the public speaking skills of the new generation, and to foster and build the self-confidence of participating individuals.

為讓中學生有更多機會拍攝短片，M21定期資助學校組成隊伍拍攝價值短片，冀透過本計劃增加中學生對創作和拍攝短片的興趣，並發掘有潛質的製作人。學生作品將獲安排於M21網台和「學校網絡」播放。
