Simultaneously, the PHABestival carnival promotes inclusive education for parent-child pairs, aiming to create a friendly community and a harmonious society. Funds raised support participation in the challenge and enhance services for inclusive education promotion.

「PHAB Challenge」Venturing through time, seeking the elements of inclusivity in the past
【Recently, a space-time rift has unexpectedly appeared in the PHAB Village, gradually expanding and devouring the village. Determined to find a way to repair the rift in the space-time tunnel, the PHAB Explorer Team decides to embark on a quest. As a result, the gravitational pull of the tunnel transports the team back to the past. While encountering people and events from the past, the team must also search for the elements of inclusivity that can mend the rift in the space-time tunnel. Will they succeed in gathering the elements and repairing the rift, enabling them to return from the past to the present day?】
The PHAB Challenge invites families, corporate, schools and every citizens to form teams for participation. If needed, the organizer can pair volunteers with students to form teams. The challenge requires teams of 2-3 people to complete various inclusion tasks within 25 minutes.

The 3rd PHABestival
"With the efforts of the PHAB Explorer Teams, friendly elements of inclusivity were discovered to mend tears in the time and space tunnel. Before returning to the future, the team decided to hold an inclusive carnival together to share more about the spirit of inclusive harmony, enjoy with the public, and let everyone feel the joy brought by inclusion."
To introduce the Association's services and promote the concept of inclusion, the association intentionally organizes the PHABestival, a festival that combines a carnival, inclusive education, promotion, and a service tour, at Zone D in Kwun Tong City Centre Temporary Free Space. Through various performances, sharing sessions, and craft workshops, members will showcase their diverse talents to the public.
The event will bring together individuals with a caring heart from all sectors, corporate volunteers, social enterprises, different organizations, and schools to demonstrate how to collectively build an inclusive and friendly community through a variety of booths and experiential activities.
Free admission. Public participation is welcome.
