We’re delighted to launch our inaugural Community Legal Education Month 社區法律教育月 that runs from 22 October through 29 November 2024.
For more details, please see the Community Legal Education Month 2024 poster below, and sign up here.
We’re partnering with Charles Russell Speechlys, DLA Piper, Fairbairn Catley Lo & Kong, and Hugill & Ip to bring you up to speed on the most recent developments in the community legal access space in Hong Kong.
We’re covering the legal topics that we, pro bono lawyers, and charity caseworkers work on every day. These are the laws that matter greatly in the lives of everyday people in Hong Kong: Divorce, Personal Data, Landlord & Tenant, Technology Scams, Immigration, and Domestic Violence.
Why? Because knowing about the law and being able to spot and, ideally, prevent legal problems from escalating is key to a more inclusive, less stressed and more sustainable Hong Kong. The OECD’S research states it well:
“There is an important connection between unsolved legal issues and broader issues of health, social welfare and economic wellbeing.”
If you have any questions, please drop us a line at hello@equaljustice.org
We look forward to seeing you!
