ABOUT THE EPISODE
Join DutchChamHK, CanChamHK, SwedChamHK, FinnChamHK in partnership with Manulife and supporting ally, Colliers, for the second episode of 'The Unspeakable Series: Conversations about DE&I'.
In episode 2 we will highlight the inequalities and unspoken truths that prevent the inclusion of the LGBTQIA+ individuals on their personal journeys within the communities and in our society. The communities include Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trangender, Queer, Intersex, Asexual, or those questioning their gender identity or sexual orientation.
The panel will discuss:
The less visible members of this community and their current situations in Hong Kong
Unspoken inequalities and misconceptions on gender identities and sexual orientations
The absence of laws against discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity in Hong Kong
The feelings behind disclosure at the workplace and the intersectional approach companies could adopt to generate new understandings
LGBTQIA+ history in Hong Kong and the cultural differences (HK & the Region)
Personal experiences in regards to their family, their workplace and their community
