Dr Eun Yeong Choe's research interests focus around the ways in which different people experience, interact with, understand and represent landscape, and the desire to see a more holistic and social innovative approach to planning and designing urban spaces.

Dr Choe completed a Master's in Landscape Architecture in 2015, sparking an interest in understanding the relationship between people, nature and the built environment. Her interest in socially orientated urban design eventually led her to pursue a PhD in Landscape Architecture at the University of Sheffield, exploring the value of urban natural environments as settings for the enhancement of health care delivery. 

After her PhD study, she worked as a leading author of a policy report, "Designing Blue Green Infrastructure for water management, human health, and wellbeing", as part of the EU Interreg NSR project, Blue Green Infrastructure through social innovation (BEGIN). Until recently, she has worked as a post-doctoral fellow in the Faculty of Architecture, HKU. As a key member of the project team, she has worked closely with team members and academics across other disciplines, community and public sectors to deliver the research outcomes of several healthy urban redevelopment projects. Her research interests extend to understanding the broader roles of practitioners in facilitating community involvement in urban spaces and creative methods for engaging people in research and design.
