Join us at the “I Have Something to Say” Children’s Forum organised by the Hong Kong Committee on Children’s Rights on 19 & 20 August 2025 at The University of Hong Kong. The Children’s Forum is a platform for children to speak up on matters of their concern and interact with relevant stakeholders from multi-disciplines so their voices could be properly listened.
TALK will participate on a panel Aug 19th on The hidden tragedies of children: abuses from friends and close adults.
Your participation in the Children’s Forum will definitely help to promote children’s rights in Hong Kong and send an unequivocal message to the participants and the public that the voices of children are taken seriously by the Hong Kong community.
