We are grateful for its generosity in promoting EdUHK-QNU collaboration, following on from the previous donation to support courses offered by the University’s Elder Academy. We look forward to fostering the advancement of teacher education and research, as well as sharing know-how in Quanzhou.”
Mr Li said, “EdUHK is the leading university in Hong Kong dedicated to nurturing prospective teachers, while QNU is the national bastion for teachers of Chinese in oversea countries.

We hope this collaboration can help broaden the horizons of faculty and students in both Quanzhou and Hong Kong for the enhancement of learning and teaching.
