The Department of Culture, Education and Science provides information, advices and supports on the development of French influence and cooperation through culture, art, science and education related projects. Bringing together French and Hong Kong organisations is one of the main missions of the Department, which particularly encourages long-term exchange, co-production or training programmes.

Science is a core dimension of France international influence and attractiveness. French scientific expertise covers a broad range of scientific topics areas such as archaeology, life science, robotics and electronics, or astronomy and spatial science.  French Scientific Culture is articulated around 4 cross-cutting priorities tied to global challenges: the links between arts and science; sustainable development and climate change; women in science; and the history of science and technology.
