Embracing Diversity in English: A Journey through World Englishes
Following our interactive event on Global Citizenship in CUHK, EdUHK hosted an online event for all students in the NGCE programme on December 8th from 10:00-11:30 a.m. on Zoom.
This event aimed to provide an interactive platform for all attendees to engage in discussion on the four modules developed by EdUHK: World Englishes, Gender and Sexuality, Food and Equity, and Ethnic Minorities.
The university invited Dr. WANG Lixun, the Associate Dean (International Engagement) of the Faculty of Humanities of the Education University of Hong Kong to deliver a captivating lecture titled “Embracing Diversity in English: A Journey through World Englishes”. This talk provided valuable insights into the fascinating topic of World Englishes.
Following Dr. Wang’s lecture, EdUHK had the pleasure of hosting nine student speakers who have completed the NGCE programme to share their unique perspectives on the four topics and their journeys of growing to be a global citizen.
