wr nnouncd: MFMWs project aims
to establish a network to provide psychological
counselling and emotional support to oreign
domestic helpers working in Hong Kong.
Though an acute need is pressing, the
judges reckoned that there is scant nancialhelp or projects dedicated to support
Hong Kongs oreign domestic helpers.
Building on the spirit o inclusiveness
or a harmonious society, MFMWs
project will
serve oreign
domestic helpers
rom diferent ethnic
groups and develop a Chinese
language website to oster better
understanding and cooperation with
local organisations.

The museum galleries
showcase exhibits dealing
with the history, art and the
contemporary lie o Hong Kong.
Such exhibits include the Hong Kong
Photography showcase, the Chao Shao-
an gallery, and the T.T. Tsu Gallery o Chinese
Art. Each o these exhibits captured the history and
infuences rom around the world that have helped shape
Hong Kongs culture into what it is today.
The participants ound connection in Hong Kongs
love or image and photography as seen in their exhibits
o early magazine covers and pictures o their everyday
city lie. Other participants saw similarities between their
own cultural background with that o Hong Kongs past
by citing how amiliar some o the images engraved
in the historical relics with that o their own cultural
artiacts. Most o them drew proound connections totheir history and culture in how the galleries showcase
legacies o struggles o Hong Kong, and refect on how
amiliar some o these struggles were back home.
With the success o these two Connecting Cultures
and Communities trips, MFMW will acilitate more
activities to help migrants connect and immerse deeper
into the Hong Kong culture and lie. To mark as the
culminating activity, the mission also plans to launch a
project that would allow the participants to share what
they learn rom these experiences and connect their owncultural roots to the people o Hong Kong. X
