HSUHK research reframes ageing, care and connectivity in a transnational city
Key Findings:
Older adults as active decision-makers
Digital tools as caregiving infrastructure
Learning as empowering
Care as a shared, cross-border practice
Published in leading international journals and supported by competitive external funding, Professor Ngan’s research advances scholarship in migration studies, gerontology and digital sociology. Equally important, it has resonated beyond academia, informing public debate on ageing, digital inclusion and family policy, underscoring the public value of university‑led research.
