The HKDSE Promotion Association aims to expedite the advancement of international education in the mainland by collaborating with high-quality schoolsacross various provinces. It fully implements the "International Education Three-Year Plan" within the Greater Bay Area (GBA). HKDSEPA will work alongside various junior and senior high schools, private schools, colleges, and talent education institutions in the GBA to promote strategic cooperation in international education, facilitating the successful implementation of the HKDSE international education project in the GBA and the mainland.
To promote the integrated development of international education in the GBA and the mainland, HKDSEPA has established a Professional Committee for International Education, which serves as a core engine for promoting inter-school cooperation on international education projects in key cities nationwide. The association is committed to fostering innovative development and integration between the GBA and international education, helping the GBA become a hub for educational innovation in China and even globally.
As a frontier of China's reform and opening-up and an important window for international cooperation, education plays a crucial role in the development of the GBA.

The emblem is a clever combination of the "HKDSE" lettering, a figure, and a book design. Its inspiration comes from the scene of a person reading a thick book, symbolizing various talents advancing courageously and continually breaking through under the unity and guidance of the association. Additionally, the overall shape of the emblem resembles a person standing in front of a skyscraper, representing the gathering of talents from different regions and professional backgrounds, while also signifying their contribution of new energy and color to the prosperity and development of the nation.
