During the workshops, speakers shared a brief introduction of major racial and ethnic groups in Hong Kong, concepts of racial prejudice, racial stereotyping and equal opportunities, Race Discrimination Ordinance (RDO), cultural sensitivity model and good practices on creating an inclusive environment in the educational establishment. To build a racially harmonious campus, it is important to raise our sensitivity to different races and cultures with good practices such as, avoid assumptions, watch out words: “all”, “always”, “never”, “those people” etc. For more workshop information, please download the handouts on Multi-cultural Campus.
