Hong Kong Policy Research Institute- Researcher/Research Assistant (Surveying or Town Planning)

Hong Kong Policy Research Institute

 

The Hong Kong Policy Research Institute (“The Institute”) was set up in 1995, in response to the historical changes anticipated to be brought about by the return of Hong Kong’s sovereignty to China in 1997. Its members came from the academic, professional, business, education, cultural, and NGO sectors.

 

Since January 2016, the Institute has been undertaking a series of research studies entitled Hong Kong Vision Project, focusing on the major challenges facing the HKSAR and how to address them. Sixteen research reports have been published up to now and they are well-received in the community. The Institute will continue the work in the coming years.
