Good News! Dr Sun Yi, Assistant Professor of BRE, was successful in being awarded PICO Public Policy Research Funding of about HK$500,000 for his project ‘Effects of Environment-related Experiences on the Older Person’s Well-being in Hong Kong’s Double Ageing Context: A Person environment Perspective’.
‘Double Ageing’ in terms of an increasing elderly population living in aged districts is a big headache for Hong Kong. With his passion for urban planning and age-friendly cities and communities, through this winning project, Dr Sun is eager to identify those socio-spatial and psychological experiences perceived to be important by Hong Kong’s elderly, to assess
the effects of socio-spatial and psychological experiences on well-being, and to examine the mediating effects of psychological experiences on the relationship between socio-spatial experience and well-being, and ultimately, to identify key planning strategies and improved environmental features. Well Done to Dr Sun!
