EdUHK Holds Honorary Awards Ceremony

The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK) held the Honorary Awards Ceremony at its Tai Po campus on 22 October 2026. Officiated by EdUHK Council Chairman Dr David Wong Yau-kar, the ceremony conferred three honorary doctorates and presented four honorary fellowships on seven distinguished individuals, in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the advancement of education and service to the society.

 

In his address, EdUHK President Professor John Lee Chi‑Kin noted that the ceremony was being held in the 10th anniversary year of the University's retitling, a significant milestone in its history. He paid tribute to the seven award recipients, whose contributions to academia, public policy, environmental sustainability and industry have made a lasting impact on the HKSAR, the nation and the world, and embody the values the University community holds dear. “Each of our distinguished honourees exemplifies the transformative power of visionary leadership, selfless service and unwavering dedication. Their lifetime achievements serve as guiding beacons to our students and graduates, and stand as living testaments to the core values that the University strives to cultivate across our institution: nurturing talents and promoting education; transforming and actualising lives.” 

 

EdUHK has conferred Honorary Fellowships since 2009 and Honorary Doctorates since 2016 to recognise individuals of eminence in society. Recipients include scholars and professionals dedicated to advancing education as well as leaders of distinction from a wide range of professional, industrial and business sectors.
