As part of the ILC Global Alliance’s 30th anniversary celebrations, ILC-UK and ILC Singapore invite you to join us for a webinar to discuss how Hong Kong and Singapore are responding to the challenges of an ageing society.

Both Singapore and Hong Kong are finding their health systems are coming under increasing pressure due to an ageing population. But how well are they coping? And what more could be done?

In 2019, ILC-UK and ILC Singapore teamed up to produce Healthier for longer: Improving adult immunisation uptake in Singapore. Alongside this work, ILC-UK also produced a report on Healthy ageing in Hong Kong.

During this webinar, we will share findings from our work in Singapore and Hong Kong, highlight how things have changed over the past year in the context of COVID-19, and debate the similarities and differences between the situation in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Chair: Susana Harding, Senior Director, ILC Singapore

Speakers include:

  • Dr Ng Wai Chong, Chief, Clinical Affairs, Tsao Foundation
  • David Sinclair, Director, ILC-UK
  • Pamela Tin, Senior Researcher / Head of Healthcare & Social Development, Our Hong Kong Foundation

We are grateful to Pfizer for providing a charitable grant to support our projects in Hong Kong and Singapore.
