Global News Chat
In today's globalised world, news flows instantly across the Internet, social media, and other online platforms. While a simple tap on your smartphone can show you news from thousands of miles away, these quick glimpses often don't tell the whole story. That's why Global News Chat creates a space for students from diverse backgrounds to share their personal views and dive deeper into important international and regional issues.

Want to hear different perspectives on current events and discover how they connect to your life?  Or respond to the things that concern you most? Don't miss this opportunity! Join us at Global News Chat—no prior knowledge needed. Come learn alongside your fellow HKU peers.

Previous discussion topics include the mass migration from Myanmar, the UK election, and social and political issues in India, etc.

國際社會每天都有不同大小的發展與變化,透過智能手機,彈指之間,便能盡覽如繁星般眾多的社交媒体和平台去「了解」世界,但我們真的看到故事的全部嗎?這便促成了我們舉辦Global News Chat,邀請各地同學,分享他所關注的時事,由此,我們不僅能思考個人與社會的關係,更能與朋輩相互砥礪,從而認識自我、了解世界。

每個學期,Global News Chat都會邀請來自不同地方的同學分享他們關注的時事議題,範圍涵蓋緬甸人流亡英國大選,以至印度社會和政治問題等不同議題。
