Hong Kong Outdoor Learning - Journal of Adventure Education & Outdoor Learning

I'm thrilled to share that friends and I have had our first academic paper published in the Journal of Adventure Education and Outdoor Learning! It's also been a hugely rewarding and insightful process despite the many weekends given up to writing (and rewriting). Our study aims to provide an update to a paper written by Simon Beames and Andrew Brown on the outdoor education sector in Hong Kong over twenty years ago. Thank you to everyone who completed the surveys. We hope the findings prove useful and help spark some discussion on how the sector can continue to develop here. Special thanks to my co-authors Wylie Hui, Jake Taylor and Tom Yuen.
