Study On Best Practices And Social Impacts

2024-03-21
🗓 -

In celebration of the International Day of Families which falls on 15 May every year, the Consortium of Institutes on Family in the Asian Region (CIFA) is pleased to announce the findings of A Study on Best Practices and the Social Impacts of the Wofoo 3A Project, which is a joint research with the Sau Po Centre on Ageing of The University of Hong Kong.

Following a decade of developing and enhancing the Wofoo 3A Project, the Study was conducted utilising a mixed-methods design involving document review and in-depth interviews. A Six Best Practices model adopted by the award-winning teams in congruence with CIFA’s mission was demonstrated, namely the PIE-ISI (i.e., Project rationale, Implementation, Evaluation, Innovation, Sustainability and Replicability, and Institutional Synergy). This practice model is developed and promoted, not only in Asia but also in the international arena.

The paper on the study has been presented by Prof. Vivian W.Q. LOU, Director of the Sau Po Centre on Ageing at the Plenary Session 1 of the 6th CIFA Regional Symposium held online on 10-11 June 2021.
