Brief Description
Creating a more equitable and inclusive society is crucial in achieving Sustainable development. This forum will look into the critical issues faced by sexual minorities with examples from Hong Kong and Asia. Professor SUEN Yiu Tung will talk about the rights of sexual minority groups in Hong Kong with a focus on marriage equality, in a comparative context with examples from various countries in Asia. Mr Jerome YAU will share his views on marriage equality at the individual and social justice levels, and how improved justice could enhance the well-being of the sexual minority population. Mr Henry LI will share his experience as a prominent figure involved in related court cases.
This forum is highly relevant to several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) including SDG 5 (Gender Equality), SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities), SDG 16 (Peace, Justice and Strong institutions).
Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Forum Series 2023–24 is co-organized by the Office of University General Education, CUHK and the Hong Kong Chapter of the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN Hong Kong).
