KE Spotlight - Community Engagement - HKU Knowledge Exchange

KE in The Review 2014

The Review 2014 looks back at another fruitful year for knowledge exchange and also looks ahead to further developments. "HKU scholars have been actively bringing their findings into the community through knowledge exchange. I hope we can take these activities further by focusing more on the question of 'impact'," says Professor Peter Mathieson, President and Vice-Chancellor. "We have a moral responsibility to engage the public in what we are doing and to use our knowledge to inform public debate. This is an area where HKU has much potential to lead in Hong Kong and the region, and we will be doing more in this direction in future."
