Centre for Chinese Classical Learning
With the generous donation of HK$10 million from the Fung Sun Kwan Chinese Arts Foundation, the Chinese University of Hong Kong has established the new Centre for Chinese Classical Learning (the Centre) under the Faculty of Arts. The donation will be used to support the operation of the Centre in the first five years and for the promotion of Chinese classical learning and traditional Chinese values and virtues. The Centre, which was established in March 2015, is an important education hub for promoting the beauty of traditional Chinese culture and virtues, and facilitating whole-person development of students.
The Centre will regularly organize lectures and seminars on Chinese culture, and offer credit-bearing General Education courses for students. To promote Chinese classical learning to a wider population, the Centre will also launch recreational and cultural activities and programmes related to Chinese classics and traditional values in collaboration with different organizations.
