A highlight of the day was the tour of NCKU’s Magic School of Green Technologies, an award-winning sustainable building that will serve as the venue for the APACPH General Assembly and pre-conference workshops. Observations and discussions during the visit will help ensure the venue fully supports the conference’s academic and operational needs.
Looking ahead, CCHP will continue to work closely with APACPH leadership and NCKU to deliver a highly successful, innovative, and sustainable conference in Tainan. Building on these efforts, CCHP continues to leverage its expertise and resources to foster regional collaboration, support knowledge exchange, and advance APACPH’s vision across the Asia-Pacific region.
