Aims
This programme aims to foster cultural exchange between students from Hong Kong and mainland China. Students from Hunan University and Soochow University will visit New Asia College in early July, accompanied by NA students who will also participate in the field trip in Hong Kong. During their stay, all participants will engage in a range of activities, including visits to various CUHK units, government offices, and social service organizations, as well as other cultural and social events. In a reciprocal gesture, New Asia students will visit Hunan University in Changsha in mid-July, where they will volunteer to teach in a remote town or village. They will then travel to Suzhou to visit Soochow University. While in Suzhou, students will delve into the region’s cultural and historical heritage, visit leading local enterprises and also visit Mr. Ch’ien Mu’s tombstone. Upon completion of the programme, students will receive a certificate of participation.
