Since HKSPC established the “Child Safeguarding Support Line” around a year ago, the calls received were not only related to the association’s stakeholders but also to the entire Hong Kong public.
HKSPC held the “Safeguarding Children on the Internet” online seminar on 4 July 2023. The seminar can now be watched in full on our Facebook page.
The HKSPC Child Safeguarding Academy has been established with the goal of offering systematic and comprehensive support for professional development to our colleagues.
On 15 May, HKSPC visited the campuses of Tung Wah College and exchanged with their management team. The College gave us a tour at their learning and therapy laboratories.
We have established the HKSPC Child Safeguarding Academy earlier this year to provide our staff with systematic and comprehensive professional training and support to promote a child safeguarding culture centred on children’s developmental needs.
Just like governments would enact laws to protect citizens’ safety and properties, any organisations that are involved in taking care of children should have a Child Safeguarding Policy for their employees to follow.
As an organisation with over 95 years of history, HKSPC has an unshaken commitment to child protection despite various challenges and difficulties emerged over the years.
We have established new departments and positions comprised of executives with extensive experience in the fields in order to improve our governance and transform the agency’s overall work culture.
