What we need

• The ability to understand Cantonese as the launch event will be primarily conducted in Cantonese
• Providing on-site support during our launch event on Oct 7 (around 11am - 2pm)

Background

No action is too small when it comes to changing the world. Every Action Matters is a project developed by Resolve with the aim of empowering everyone in our community to take inclusive action in their everyday lives. With the participation of Resolve’s community of fellows, the Every Action Matters campaign will include the release of a Hong Kong first-ever bilingual Equality Toolkit on how to be an ally and active bystander in the areas of race, gender and disability (supported by The Equal Opportunities Commission) and a series of experiential virtual workshops. Our launch event (Oct 7) will explore how our identities shape who we are, how we can leverage our privilege for good and some simple steps we can take to be an ally when it comes to race, gender, and disability.

What we have

The online launch event will be produced in a physical space with all speakers and volunteers joining in-person. You will listen to stories of the Resolve Community and social justice leaders who have committed to diversity and inclusion work. You will learn more about allyship during the event and interact with our speakers during an after-party on the day.Resolve will provide the technical equipment on the day and give you a briefing before the event to support your participation.

Why this is important

Your support will help us engage a wide audience in an interactive webinar and empower the public to be better allies to marginalized communities in Hong Kong. It will also raise visibility to our equality toolkit, which was created with the view of starting conversations around equality localized to Hong Kong.
