趙永佳教授及蘇雪冰博士在2025年6月28日(星期六)晚上，以年輕中醫生涯規劃及專業發展作主題，於新華中醫中藥促進會會址舉辦了一個三小時的培訓工作坊。是次工作坊是“2026年研究評審工作(2026 Research Assessment Exercise)”中，名為《香港中醫藥發展：專業化、應用與政策》研究影響項目(Impact Case Study)的一部分。
工作坊對象為應屆中醫學畢業生或執業年資10年以下者的中醫師，當晚出席的年輕中醫師共19位。是次活動的協辦機構包括新華中醫中藥促進會、香港大學中醫全科學士(全日制)校友會、香港浸會大學中醫藥學院全日制課程校友會及香港中文大學中醫學院校友會。
工作坊於晚上六時半開始，趙永佳教授首先以歷年的調研數據，解構香港市民使用中醫的情況，並回顧及剖析香港中醫發展的現實困境及目前面對的挑戰。隨後蘇雪冰博士以社會心理資本搭建的理論概念，探討實現職場幸福及可持續發展的可能性。活動讓參加者了解如何將自己的信念與價值觀，化為自己日常工作中的各樣實際行動。講者建議參加者回顧在生涯發展歴程中，是否曾經遇上一些助航者陪伴著自己的個人成長。透過工作坊內的互動活動及小組討論與問答，蘇博士鼓勵參加者回顧及描畫自己生涯發展歴程的苦低谷與喜樂。
香港教育大學（教大）與香港財務策劃師學會（IFPHK）7月2日簽署合作備忘錄，開展為期三年的合作計劃。雙方將共同推動財務策劃專業的卓越發展，透過學術與業界資源的整合，提升從業人員的專業標準。同時將拓展CFP®資格認證教育途徑，支持多元化資格認證與培訓框架之外，亦將深化產學研協作與建立長期夥伴關係，以回應行業發展需求，攜手為行業注入新動力。
合作備忘錄簽署儀式在教大大埔校園舉行，由教大校長李子建教授及IFPHK行政總裁楊偉雄博士代表簽署。出席儀式的還包括教大署理副校長（學術）及協理副校長（學術質素保證）楊少詩教授、協理副校長（內地協作及發展）蓋會霞女士、博文及社會科學學院院長李偉強教授、財務處處長郭海先生；以及IFPHK主席張言銘先生、副主席（發展）余碩衡博士。
教大校長李子建教授致辭時指出，教大以「教育未來 多元專才」為發展方向，多年來致力於個人理財及理財教育的學術發展及人才培育。為滿足社會對個人理財專才的需求持續上升，大學開辦了香港首個專注個人及家庭財務策劃和財富管理的「個人理財榮譽文學士課程」及「個人理財教育文學碩士課程」，回應市場所需。
李教授表示：「此次與IFPHK的合作，將進一步促進教大在職業和專業教育領域的戰略發展，突顯金融服務業界對教大學術質素的肯定與信任，也見證教大積極融入社區、拓展夥伴關係的努力。未來，教大將繼續與金融行業和專業機構保持緊密協作，聚焦於理財素養的提升，攜手推動可持續發展目標的實現。」
IFPHK主席張言銘先生於致辭時說：「適逢學會成立25週年，此次與教大的合作具有雙重意義。首先，此次合作具有學術銜接及實踐的意義，教大的『個人理財教育文學碩士』課程畢業生直接符合CFP®資格認證教育要求，無疑為青年專業人才鋪設職業路徑。其次，此合作具有教育體系擴容的意義，教大即將開辦的『個人理財榮譽文學士』課程，進一步完善財務策劃人才培養梯隊。最後，我們特別感謝教大校長李子建教授的卓越領導，共同推動香港國際財富管理中心建設。」
他還表示：「CFP認可財務策劃師作為全球最具權威性的財務策劃認證，以嚴格的『4E』標準著稱，包括教育、考試、經驗及專業操守。作為港澳地區唯一獲財務策劃標準制定局授權的認證機構，學會至今已培育近3,600名CFP持證人。全球範圍內，CFP專業人才更覆蓋28個經濟體，總數逾23萬，彰顯其國際認受性。」
The 11th Fieldwork Report Competition for Secondary Schools 2024-2025, co-organized by the SSPS Department and the Caritas Chan Chun Ha Field Studies Centre (CCCHFSC), was successfully completed. Over 350 students from 47 schools participated in the competition. Each team of secondary school students conducted field research on a wide range of environmental and socio-cultural issues in Hong Kong. The students also engaged in extensive discussions with our panel members during workshops and presentations organized by the SSPS and CCCHFSC. We aim to encourage students to continue developing their awareness of public issues and to apply their field research skills in the future. Congratulations to all the awardees!
「玩」的真諦，不僅止於休閒與享樂，更是一種凝聚社群、連結社區中不同年齡的街坊的無形力量。社會學與社區研究課程的六名學生，便透過「玩物」這項媒介，於上月底一連三天在大角咀舉辦了一場別開生面的展覽及攤檔，成功匯聚了社區內不同年齡層的街坊，創造了一次次溫馨的交流。
在過去數月，這群學生在大角咀招募長者，共同舉辦並參與了一日遊、紥染、手機殼創作、編織等多個工作坊，搭建了街坊與年輕一輩互相交流的橋樑。學生們更在大角咀透過攤檔展示活動成果。
「角落士多」社區展覽以大「角」咀這個角落為靈感，將展覽佈置成一間彷彿充滿懷舊氛圍的「士多」。在小小的空間中，玩具玩物應有盡有，就如拍公仔紙、彈波子等，帶領街坊回到過去，體驗長者的純真童年時光。
首天活動（5月29日）在「轉角」的城市生活所舉行，讓來往大角咀與大型商場的街坊，能在這個新建的公共空間中，體驗遊戲的樂趣。
隨着天色驟變，第二至第三天的活動（5月30日及5月31日），學生們搬到了「轉角」共創空間這鋪位空門擺攤，讓街坊們在室內也可慢慢享受遊戲。
不少街坊經過時攤檔也湊熱鬧望望，不經意間便聚集起來。尤為令人鼓舞的是，許多家長特意帶著小學生前來參與，更有不少小學生三五成群結隊而來，氣氛相當熱烈。
透過簡單的玩樂與玩物，這次活動不僅讓不同年齡的街坊們彼此認識了彼此的玩樂方式，更難能可貴地創造了一個共同參與的玩樂聚會，增強了社區凝聚力。

The Master of Public Policy and Management (MPPM) students recently returned from a highly successful study tour to London, UK, which took place from May 28 to June 4. This immersive experience included engaging lectures delivered by esteemed faculty from University College London (UCL) and the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), as well as insights from practitioners in the medical sector.
Students participated in discussions on critical topics such as water management, business management, regulatory governance, and medical policy. The diverse array of lectures provided invaluable knowledge and sparked meaningful conversations among students.
In addition to academic sessions, students had the unique opportunity to visit renowned organisations, including Google, the British Museum, and Westminster. These visits enriched their understanding of real-world applications of policy and management principles.
Feedback from students has been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing that the lectures and organisational visits were not only informative but also instrumental in enhancing their educational journey. Students stated, "The experience was truly beneficial and has broadened our perspectives. We got opportunities to talk to the locals as well."
The MPPM programme is committed to providing students with opportunities that extend beyond the classroom, preparing them for impactful careers in public policy and management. The study tour to London will be infused in its 3-credit bearing elective course PPG6031 Overseas Experiential Learning in 2025/26 and onwards.

社會科學與政策研究學系博士生Sai Htong Kham早前接受香港電台《睇得見。聽得到》訪問，深入探討了他從初來乍到香港時面對的種種挑戰，到最終成功融入社會，並將香港視為第二個家的心路歷程。
The Special Issue titled ‘Sociology of Sports in Hong Kong after COVID 19- Individual Behavior, Organizational Dynamics and Business Opportunities’ (https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/issn/1871-2673/vol/21/iss/1) is a collaborative attempt of Dr. Lawrence Ho (SSPS) and Dr. Gary Chow (HPE) to coordinate a thematic study on the changing sporting context in Hong Kong during and after the pandemic. A total of 10 EdUHK colleagues and friends have made contributions to the issue, which collectively highlight the multifaceted impacts of COVID-19 on Hong Kong’s sports and education sectors and underscore the importance of innovative and inclusive approaches to recovery, integrating technology, holistic health and community engagement. A special feature is the scholarship from two frontline sports persons, Dr Kevin Kam, Director of School Partnership & Field Experience Office (SPFEO) of EdUHK, and Mr Tak-nang Li, senior community sports developer, who wrote the PE education and sports industry landscape development from practitioners’ angle.
玩，不只是年輕人的專利。
在過去兩個多月，六位來自社會學與社區研究榮譽社會科學學士一年級的同學走進大角咀，展開一場跨代共融的溫柔實驗。他們邀請當區長者參與一系列互動活動，包括本地一日遊、茶聚閒談、紮染藝術、桌上遊戲，以及手機與編織技能交換等，透過創作與陪伴，共同探索生活的趣味與可能，促進跨代理解與情感連結。
相關活動成果已於 4 月 9 至 11 日在香港教育大學校園展出，透過展品與紀錄片段，呈現「老有所樂」的實踐面貌——玩樂，從來不應被年齡劃界，它是一種跨代共享的生活哲學。
展覽亦將於稍後移師大角咀社區展出，詳情請留意 Instagram 頁面 @kok_echoes。
此活動為社會學與社區研究榮譽社會科學學士課程總整專案一部分，屬於「校園工作計劃（專題式工作）24/25」項目，由簡禕博士負責指導。
Geopolitics is redefining the world that Hong Kong used to face and operate in. At the same time, the city is further integrated into the national development trajectory, especially within the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), which opens new opportunities as well as complementarities and competitions vis-à-vis other Chinese cities. Also, both government and business now seek to strengthen economic links with Southeast Asia and the Middle East. How should Asia and GBA feature in Hong Kong’s rethinking of regionalization strategy to drive new growth?
In his major address to Hong Kong on 1 July 2022, President Xi Jinping emphasized the need to care about the young generation and expressed hope that all of Hong Kong’s young people “will devote themselves to building Hong Kong into a better home, writing a rewarding chapter of their life with impassioned youth” (投身到建設美好香港的行列中來，用火熱的青春書寫精彩的人生). Young people are the future of our society. What are their aspirations and most pressing concerns today? How can a more conducive environment be fostered to enable them to build their hope and stake in the city?
