​​The COVID-19 pandemic had profound social, economic, and health impacts on billions of people across the globe. Hong Kong in particular faced multiple waves of infections and strict anti-epidemic regulations. Despite the move to a new post-pandemic 'normal,' many demographic groups in Hong Kong society are still dealing with the impacts of the pandemic. Young adults are a prime example as they have faced multiple challenges in relation to their education, health and social lives. Our interactive panel discussion, “Transitioning from University to the Workforce During and Post COVID-19,” will present qualitative and quantitative research findings from our Research Grants Council Collaborative Research Fund (CRF) project. The event will also focus on how we can apply our research findings to develop evidence-based support strategies and interventions to improve graduates’ university-to-workplace transitions during and after times of crisis. The event will also feature a panel discussion with the main stakeholders of our CRF project, namely, university students, graduates, university staff representatives and workplace representatives from across different industries.

Press release: HKU School of English, HKU RIICH and IC4CH co-host the “Transitioning from University to the Workplace During and Post COVID-19” Interactive Panel
