The Centre for Psychosocial Health (originally named as Centre for Psychosocial Health and Ageing) was established in December 2012 under the Faculty of Education and Human Development. The mission of the Centre is to develop cutting-edge research programs that will (a) enhance the community\u2019s awareness and knowledge of the psychosocial aspects of health, and (b) inform private and public sector policy. The Centre aims to pull together a critical, multidisciplinary mass within EdUHK to facilitate collaboration and to raise the current level of research based primarily on the isolated efforts of individual researchers, and to provide the necessary expertise and infrastructure for the sustainable conduct of such research and its translation into improving psychosocial health at individual, family and community levels.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
