Our collaborative global IPE initiative led by the Hong Kong University Redefining the power of partnership: Transforming healthcare through global interprofessional education has been shortlisted for The Power of Partnerships Award. This award recognizes the power of partnerships in education, and we are proud of this important achievement as our project ranks in the top 25%, securing a spot on the 2024 Shortlist of the highly competitive 11th edition of the QS Reimagine Education Awards.
