I·CARE Salon is an iconic programme under the University Lecture on Civility which promotes reflective thinking on different topics. Through joining a series of seminars, participants will be able to exchange insights on significant academic, cultural and social issues. After months away, I∙CARE Salon is confirmed to be back. It enables participants to achieve inner significance through continued intellectual exchange.
