Engagement Session on "Harmony and Cultural Inclusion"
23 September 2023
On 23 September 2023, the Commission on Children (CoC) held a stakeholder engagement event on the theme of harmony and cultural inclusion with the participation of around 40 primary school students.
Through ice-breaking activities and cultural activity in group, including playing musical instruments, making artworks and dancing, the event promoted understanding, cooperation, respect and inclusion of children from different cultural backgrounds. The Chief Secretary for Administration and Chairperson of the CoC, Mr Chan Kwok-ki, the Acting Secretary for Education, Mr Sze Chun-fai, and the Under Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Mr Ho Kai-ming, chatted with students and appreciated their performances. They also made lanterns and enjoyed festive food together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The event was held at Victoria House and moderated by non-official members of the CoC. It is a stakeholder engagement event under the "Walk with Kids" thematic campaign of the CoC. Through a series of publicity initiatives and engagement sessions on different themes throughout the year, the "Walk with Kids" campaign aims to raise public awareness of child protection and enhance their understanding on the CoC's work in different dimensions.
