Other Discrimination

Many other vulnerable groups in Hong Kong face discrimination and exploitation and find themselves trapped in their situations. They may suffer age, gender or disability discrimination, domestic/sexual violence or more. Many groups and non-profits already exist in Hong Kong to serve these individuals. We collaborate with them with our integrated and interdisciplinary approach to find creative solutions for their problems.
