Fondation de France Asia (FDFA) has recently conducted an active programme of engagements in Hong Kong across the fields of public health, culture, and philanthropy. In August and September, the team participated in major regional gatherings, including Philanthropy for Better Cities 2026 in Hong Kong and the AVPN Global Conference in India.
