Project Details
What We Need
Diverse Talent is an initiative of Fun-Tastic 悠樂長，a Hong Kong NGO dedicated to fostering inclusion and empowering people from diverse backgrounds — supporting youth, seniors, refugees, and new-to-English communities. Through education, community engagement and technology, we create opportunities that help every young person feel seen, heard and able to thrive.Many students — especially those learning English as an additional language, or who simply haven't yet found a story that hooks them — quietly disengage from reading when the texts they're given don't match their level or interests. Everybody Reads is an AI-powered reading platform built to solve this: it generates personalised fiction and non-fiction stories calibrated to each reader's ability, lets pupils become the hero of their own story, and automatically assesses comprehension through the VIPERS framework. But a platform can only truly serve its users if it listens to them. That's why Diverse Talent is launching the Reading Ambassador programme: we invite young people aged 8–18 in Hong Kong to test the platform as real users, share their honest experience, and help us redesign reading for their generation.
What We Have
Every ambassador receives everything they need to hit the ground running, so this project stays fun and low-pressure.- **Full trial access** to the Everybody Reads platform, so you can explore, generate stories and test features freely on your own device.- **A guided kickoff call (~20 minutes)** where we walk you through the platform, show you what to try first, and answer any questions.- **A simple "Reviewer Starter Kit"** — a one-page guide explaining each feature (hero creation, story generation, word-by-word audio, auto-read, text-size adjustment, vocabulary tracker), plus a clear checklist so you know what to test.- **A flexible feedback template** — choose written, voice or video feedback; Cantonese and English both welcome.- **Direct support** — our Diverse Talent team is reachable by email and chat throughout, so you never feel stuck.- **Self-paced scheduling** — complete roughly 3–5 hours of testing over 2–4 weeks, from home, whenever suits you.- **Parent/guardian support** — for younger ambassadors, parents can join the kickoff call and coordinate, making participation easy and comfortable.
Why this is important
This programme directly advances Diverse Talent's mission of fostering inclusion and empowering young people from diverse backgrounds.**Putting youth voices at the centre.** Our goal is to serve young readers — so we must listen to them. By making 8–18 year-olds genuine product advisors, we move from adults assuming what works to students telling us what works, giving a voice to those who are often least heard.**Serving those we are here to help.** The insights gathered help refine an AI reading platform designed for students who haven't yet found a story that hooks them and for those learning English as an additional language — exactly the communities our initiative exists to support. Better design means more engaged readers, stronger literacy and greater confidence.**Building an engaged community.** Each ambassador becomes a young advocate for reading in Hong Kong, spreading positive habits among peers and families and modelling how technology can serve, not distract.

- Share your verdict as a short written review or a video (your choice, Cantonese/English welcome)
- Join one short kickoff call ~20 minutes to get oriented and ask anything
