Hong Kong Advanced Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Studies

Research Area

Priority is given to dynamic approaches to the following local and global research themes:

  • Risk and its representation
  • Sustainable development
  • Innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship
  • Coloniality and its epistemological consequences

We encourage cross-disciplinary projects which combine a range of themes, such as risk in the context of both human-produced and “natural” disasters from conceptual and empirical perspectives; health-based risk assessment and management; Entrepreneurship and the preservation of cultural heritage; Discourse and representation of migration in the context of the 21st century.
