Cheng G. is volunteering as Simultaneous Interpretation for Women's Festival Hong Kong

Women's Festival Hong Kong

Women's Festival Hong Kong

Women’s Festival is the first and only annual celebration of femininity since its creation by Eaton HK, Sally Coco and Reel Women HK in 2018. The festival offers workshops and talks that promote gender awareness, equality and social change, striving to include those marginalized by class, gender, sexuality and more. As a registered charity, we donate our net proceeds each year to local women’s NGOs in need. 「女人節」由 Eaton HK、Sally Coco 和女影香港於 2018 年攜手創立,是全港唯一一個慶祝女性力量與美麗的慶典,提供多元的活動、工作坊等,以推廣性別意識、平等、社會改變等議題,同時勇於包容因社會階級、性別、性向等而被邊緣化的群體。作為註冊慈善機構,我們每年均將收益捐予本地婦女非牟利組織。 http://womensfestival.hk/
