We are delighted to invite you to our upcoming event, Social Enterprise World Forum 2025 (SEWF25) Fringe Day Event - PEOPLE First: From CUHK Research to Social Innovation for Mental Wellbeing, convening stakeholders from Hong Kong and Taiwan, spanning academia, social enterprises, public organisations, and non-profits to exchange insights, explore opportunities, and build cross-sector partnerships for creating social impact.

This cross-border session brings together three applied research pioneers from CUHK and Taiwan-based academics and social innovators to explore people-centred social innovations advancing mental well-being. CUHK speakers will share interdisciplinary initiatives spanning tech-assisted autism care, creative media literacy for youth, and community-driven ADHD support. Reflecting the SEWF25 theme – PEOPLE, these cases highlight CUHK’s commitment to knowledge transfer and youth empowerment. Taiwan speakers will showcase impactful work supporting youth and carers, fostering dialogue on co-creating a mentally healthier society across borders through academic collaboration and social innovation.
