2023 Annual Report - Chiropractic Doctor's Association of Hong Kong
This edition is particularly noteworthy as it features significant updates and milestones from our chiropractic community here in Hong Kong, especially those involving the Chiropractic Doctors' Association of Hong Kong (CDAHK).
CDAHK has been actively involved in several impactful initiatives that have broadened the scope and recognition of chiropractic care in Hong Kong. One of our most notable achievements, as covered in this edition, is our participation in major government policy forums. This has allowed us not only to voice our perspective but also to ensure that the chiropractic profession is considered in healthcare policy-making.
Moreover, we are proud to announce our involvement in various medical associations and asian medical/dental forum. These engagements have fostered a productive exchange of knowledge and have further bridged the gap between our profession and other healthcare disciplines.
In the academic sphere, we've embarked on collaborations with esteemed institutions to enhance chiropractic education and research. We embrace the young chiropractors and take them to become the next generation leaders. This move not only promises a brighter future for aspiring chiropractors in Hong Kong but also contributes to the scientific body of knowledge in our field.
