The HKSAR Government works closely
with the community to promote women’s
well-being and status as well as to achieve
gender equality. The HKSAR Government is committed
to protecting the rights of women. The Convention
on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination
against Women (CEDAW) was extended to Hong
Kong in 1996. Another milestone in Hong Kong
women development is the establishment of
the Women’s Commission in 2001 that
aims to enable women to fully realize their
due status, rights and opportunities in all
aspects of life.
This video showcases the works and achievement
of the HKSAR Government in areas such as
education and training, economic participation,
health, combating domestic violence, participation
in power and decision-making, protection
of rights and the Women’s Commission
in accordance with the principle of the
CEDAW.
The video also has a 15-min Complete version,
and versions with Cantonese and Putonghua
narration. Interested parties may call 2136
