About the CPD Talk
In the 7th century, the Buddhist monk Xuan Zang set forth for a seventeen-year journey to India in search of the authentic Buddhist texts. 1,400 years later, a young heritage management graduate from mainland China has also embarked on a similar journey.
In the talk, she will narrate her “Journey to the West” from mainland China to Macao, Hong Kong and India working with cultural heritage and her understanding of heritage management through the years.
