Forging bonds and strengthening ties at NAFSA in New Orleans

CUHK showcases Hong Kong’s educational strengths alongside other Hong Kong universities.

CUHK made an impactful appearance at the NAFSA conference in May in New Orleans, showcasing its global engagement and commitment to international education. The CUHK delegation led by Ms. Shally Fan, Director of Academic Links, represented the university with distinction.

At the Study in Hong Kong Pavilion, CUHK stood alongside other Hong Kong universities, presenting a united front that highlighted Hong Kong’s educational strengths as an international education hub. The booth served as a beacon for conference attendees interested in the culturally diverse and rich academic opportunities available in Hong Kong. Throughout the 4-day conference, the CUHK delegation engaged in a marathon of meetings with both current and prospective partners, strengthening ties and sowing the seeds for new collaborations.

The presence of CUHK at NAFSA was not just about forging bonds; it was a demonstration of the University’s proactive approach to internationalisation. By actively participating in such a high profile conference, CUHK has reinforced its position as a leading institution that values cross-cultural exchange and the enrichment that comes from international cooperation.
