The Hong Kong History Centre at the University of Bristol

Robert BickersVivian KongRay Yep

The Hong Kong History Centre was formally launched in September 2022, evolving out of an eight-year Hong Kong History Project that had supported seven PhD projects, MA work, two international conferences, workshops, exhibitions, and related activities. The tagline was ‘Rethinking a City’s History’, and this is what we continue to do, now with a better-resourced platform, a larger team, and busy collaborations with partners in Hong Kong, North America, Southeast Asia, and further afield. It is the first centre globally dedicated specifically to the history of Hong Kong.
