S1E38: 38| #Metoo Moving Forward

Hong Kong Confidential

Karina Calver talks about understanding, identifying and responding to sexual harassment and sexual abuse. She emphasises the importance of educating children about consent and body safety so that they can understand boundaries as they grow up. Karina is involved in the #metoo movement in Hong Kong and the group have held a number of seminars for women and for people of all genders. Talking helps overcome denial and allows us to acknowledge the truth. Karina is helping people to be the best versions of themselves. She gives us tips for dealing with sexual harassment and discusses ways of reporting it. Karina feels that there is a shift and changes are happening in the community in relation to the #metoo issue. She is helping to open the conversations about all of these difficult topics and is a leader in this field in Hong Kong. Karina has already shared her own #metoo story on Hong Kong Confidential; Episode 7: Just a Girl.
