Dr. Louis Ng shared his insights into the societal role of humanities and how young humanities scholars should enhance their capabilities and vision. “Humanities can help us to face the profound global challenges and to identify solutions to problems and conflicts, so that we can build a better and sustainable society,” said Dr. Ng. “Human beings are facing unprecedented crises, and people are anxious…Humanities can enable us to think critically about the root causes of our problems. Humanities can also provide us with a better understanding of history, our world, our country, our community and ourselves.” He advised humanities scholars to enhance the capacity and vision by strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration and going global.
