PASCH Activities
in Hong Kong

The Goethe‑Institut is pleased to launch the HKDSE German Scholarship in 2026. Under the PASCH Initiative, we will award a full‑language‑course scholarship to the HKDSE German (Category C) top scorer—the student who attains the highest Goethe‑Zertifikat level in each cohort.

The scholarship aims to inspire PASCH students to pursue advanced Goethe‑Zertifikat levels and to achieve excellence in the HKDSE, Hong Kong’s university‑entrance examination.

The Goethe-Institut was pleased to organize visits for Mr. Oliver Bräuner, Deputy Consul General of the Federal Republic of Germany, to both PASCH schools in Hong Kong. During the visits, Mr. Bräuner and his delegation toured various school facilities and engaged in meaningful exchanges with students and school management.

Through these school visits, the PASCH initiative reinforces the shared goal of promoting intercultural dialogue and strengthening German language education in the region.

Supported by the Goethe-Institut and the German Consulate General, PASCH students in Hong Kong had the opportunity to visit the Dieter Rams: Less, But Better exhibition at the Hong Kong Design Institute (HKDI).

During the visit, students gained deeper insights into the life and work of German design master Dieter Rams, learning about his lasting influence on the field of industrial design.

Hosted by the European Studies Programme, our PASCH students took part in the Franco-German Day at the Hong Kong Baptist University. They attended a seminar delievered by the Consulates General of France and Germany and listened to presentations by European Studies students on the history and cooperation between the two nations.

The event provided a valuable opportunity to strengthen intercultural understanding and highlight the enduring Franco-German partnership.

In cooperation with the Dieter Schwarz Foundation and the Academy for Innovative Education and Management, the Goethe-Institut has award ONE scholarship to an advanced German learner from local schools in HK to participate in a three-week integrated programme in Heilbronn, Germany. This programme comprises three university visits, two weeks of German language courses, and one week of company visits.

Initiated by the German Consulate General, the Goethe-Institut is glad to co-organize a series of concerts with the Berlin-based rock duo Treptow at our PASCH schools.

Through Treptow’s alternative rock music, our PASCH students had the chance to explore German culture by spending a fun and engaging afternoon with musicians Lukas and Philipp.

In collaboration with Berlin-based street artist Philip Wallisfurth, the Goethe-Institut has transformed its Goethe Staircase Space into an Instagramable spot!

Fellow PASCH students have actively participated in the creation process, engaging closely with Mr. Wallisfurth during the artistic workshop and gaining invaluable insights into the Berlin street art scene.

The Goethe-Institut was honored to host Mr. Andrei Ivanovich Moiseenko, a survivor of the Buchenwald concentration camp, for a series of seminars at PASCH schools.

Fellow PASCH students had the invaluable opportunity to meet and engage with Mr. Moiseenko, gaining perspective on WWII history from a deeply personal angle by hearing his firsthand experiences.
 

In cooperation with Henrich Boell Foundation, fellow PASCH students had the opportunity to visit the WEEE Park recycling facility operated by German-founded company ALBA IWS in Tuen Mun.

The students also participated in a follow-up workshop hosted by the local NGO Greeners Action, where they engaged with the issue of microplastic pollution in Hong Kong.
