❝ 作為風雨蘭的共同創辦人、性暴力幸存者的同行者、輔導員、協調各部門之間的服務提供者，我在風雨蘭的每一天都在驕傲地見證幸存者的堅毅及勇氣。可惜的是，由決定求助以至決定爭取公義的方式，幸存者所需面對的掙扎經過廿年後仍缺乏本港社會及制度的正視。
現存制度的不完善，不但未能為很多的性暴力幸存者彰顯司法上的公義，亦往往為他們造成更多的傷害。風雨蘭透過建立發聲平台，讓幸存者闡述經歷，打破沉默，也致力改變不公義的制度，讓社會大眾明白性暴力受害人的需要。
憑著幸存者對風雨蘭的信任、及對「公義終會得到彰顯」這信念的堅持，我、風雨蘭的同工及支持者們一起走過了這二十年。縱然能散發的燭光微弱，也盼望風雨蘭每日的工作能繼續為有需要的人在冰冷黑暗的日子裏，帶來溫度，直至拂曉。 ❞

❝ RainLily has been playing a very unique and significant role in Hong Kong, providing the much needed services to the victims of sexual violence and their families since her establishment 20 years ago.
I greatly appreciate their approach to uphold the dignity of victims and regarded them as survivors by empowering them through the process of healing.
Apart from individual and group counselling, RainLily has done an excellent job to raise awareness of gender-based violence against women and act enthusiastically to advocate changes in law, policies and culture in order to eradicate the root causes of this social problem. As they are celebrating their 20th anniversary, I would like to offer my best wishes to all staff and volunteers. May they continue their good work to bring new life, hope, peace and joy to everyone who comes for their service. May they continue to be the voice to create a society that preserves human dignity and freedom regardless of sex and gender. ❞

❝ 性暴力帶來的傷害，從來都不只是事件本身，還有來自制度的冷漠與旁人的回應。社會大眾與支援者如何理解性暴力，當中又帶有多少迷思，往往是影響幸存者復原的關鍵。
這些年來，與性暴力幸存者同行，陪伴她們經歷情緒的高低起落，有恐懼沮喪，也有堅持與成長，在她們當中，我看到的是希望和力量。
關顧個人情緒之餘，她們亦在乎社會公義，建構一個性別平等、對幸存者友善的氛圍，減少責怪受害人文化所帶來的二度傷害，才是對她們最好的支援。從輔導到倡議，我們一起走過的旅程，是療癒創傷，更是尋找希望。 ❞
— Tiffany，風雨蘭 中心主任
❝ The harm caused by sexual violence is never solely on the incident itself. The way we understand sexual violence as a member of the public or a supporter, and the way we process its underlying myths have always been the key to survivors’ recovery.
In our journey walking along with survivors over the years, we have accompanied them through the emotional ups and downs, fear, and depression, but we have also seen their persistence and growth.
Apart from caring for personal emotions, survivors demonstrated their quest for social justice. Building a gender equal, survivors-friendly society, and reducing the secondary trauma caused by victim-blaming culture, are the best support for them. From counselling to advocacy, the journey we have travelled is to heal the wounds, and to find hope. ❞

❝ 在我最無助、最孤單時，慶幸找到風雨蘭這個專業機構幫助，在輔導員的真誠不批判尊重下，建立了信任同安全感的關係，讓我能夠將傷口包裹起來，從而得到復原。在傷口復原後，我參加了風雨蘭的義工行列，能夠給予我有機會分享自己的經歷，從分享中令我感受到有別人與我同行，能有療癒的效果，這使我更堅定地相信我能選擇生命是可以活出有色彩的人生。 ❞

過去幾年，我們一直努力為性暴力受害人爭取法庭保護措施，雖然經歷了好幾年漫長的等待，但到政府終於在法例上有少少修訂，令受害人得到更大的保障的時候，我真的覺得幾年的努力是非常值得，因為我們實實在在令社會變得更加好。在風雨蘭，我不只得到了安心及信心，最重要的是得到繼續往前走的動力。 ❞

❝ When I was at the most helpless and alone, I was lucky to find a professional organisation like RainLily.

We have been fighting for the court protective measures for the past few years. Although we have waited for a long while, the government has finally made the legal amendments, allowing the victims to get greater protection.

❝ 我很感激風雨蘭的社工，因為只有在她們面前，我才能夠把心底話說出來。
2017年我開始接觸風雨蘭社工，向她們說出小時候被性侵犯的經歷。我不太擅長表達。試過內心對被性侵一事覺得糾結，卻又找不到文字形容，也不知從何說起，那種感覺很難受。我不願意向其他人透露。或者應該這樣說，我認為別人當刻的反應一定會令我覺得難堪，因此我並沒有勇氣跟家人或朋友說。多年後我曾向一位好友提及事件，雖然這個保守多年的秘密終於有人和我一起分擔，但她的反應也一如我所料，她感到非常驚訝，重複問了數遍我是否在開玩笑。
在風雨蘭，我不必擔心要面對令我措手不及的反應或問題，社工明白我的心情和我的擔憂。在社工的引導下，我講出自己的心聲。每次的見面就似在砌一幅拼圖。拼圖展示了自己遭性侵時和多年後的內心感受。對事件不再感到模糊，亦不會再欺騙和質疑自己。
偶爾因性侵事件感到失落或孤單時，都會想起之前與風雨蘭的社工，一起學習觀察自己的情緒，講出自己的感受。
衷心感謝風雨蘭社工在過去對我的支持。 ❞

❝ My heartfelt thanks to RainLily’s counsellors, for being in front of them, I can speak from the bottom of my heart.
I reached out to RainLily in 2017, and talked to them about my experience of being sexually assaulted when I was younger. I am not good at expressing myself. I wavered, but unable to express by words, and where should I start? That was harsh. I was reluctant to tell others, or maybe I put this way – I thought the response from others will make me embarrassed. So I did not take the courage to tell my family and friends. Years later, I told a friend. It seems like the burden is shared, but her reacted as the way I expected, she felt surprised, and asked me several times if I was telling jokes.
In RainLily, I do not need to worry about being questioned, counsellors understand my feelings and worries. With their help, I can speak and tell what I wanted to say. Every meeting was like completing a puzzle. The puzzle is revealing myself with the feelings during and after being assaulted. Now I am not puzzled towards what have happened, and will not doubt myself.
I truly thank RainLily counsellors for their support in the past. ❞

醫療往往是性暴力受害人的首要關心問題，為減低受害人要四出奔走各部門機構，風雨蘭與廣華醫院的合作於2001年8月展開，風雨蘭－性暴力危機支援中心亦於2002年4月正式於廣華醫院運作。
風雨蘭危機中心在廣華醫院期間經歷了服務由零建立、與區內外的社福、醫療及司法單位磋商協調服務提供。亦渡過了2006年賽馬會慈善信託基金共五年的慷慨撥款屆滿後，被政府當局拒絕以公共財政承擔性暴力受害人支援服務所引起的倒閉及服務斷層危機。當年的「風雨蘭守護天使行動」透過聯署及籌款為受服務與財政困難影響的風雨蘭得到很大的鼓勵及支持。最後於2006年12月，香港公益金決定緊急撥款資助風雨蘭危機中心，及後亦透過基綫撥款資助風雨蘭的求助熱線及危機支援服務。
廣華醫院於2011年展開重建工程，風雨蘭的危機中心亦需遷出。在基督教聯合醫院前行政總監陸志聰醫生的協助下，危機中心於2010年3月遷入基督教聯合醫院。其後於2014年，基督教聯合醫院亦因重建工程而須拆卸危機中心所在之大樓。風雨蘭遂於同年遷至現時的新界東危機中心。
❝ 與風雨蘭之緣始於2000年的廣華醫院及其後的基督教聯合醫院，路途崎嶇，由零變壹固然困難重重，要保持千里之行這種心境亦殊不容易，但大家一起做到了，20周年的今天是感恩的日子，多謝沿途有你。 ❞

Medical care has always been a major concern for victims of sexual violence. RainLily's collaboration with Kwong Wah Hospital began in August 2001, the goal was to reduce the need for survivors to rush between different departments. RainLily – Sexual Violence Crisis Centre started its operation in Kwong Wah Hospital in April 2002.
Through building coordination and linkage with social services, medical, and law-enforcement units within and beyond the periphery of the centre, RainLily established from scratch in Kwong Wah Hospital. RainLily's days in Kwong Wah also been through the shutting down crisis that would have left our service users stranded in 2006 due to the government's refusal in subventing sexual violence victim support services with public expenditure.
The 'Guardian Angels of RainLily' campaign in the same year provided us with much support and encouragement through petition and fundraising.
Eventually in December 2006, The Community Chest of Hong Kong decided to provide an urgent allocation to RainLily's crisis centre, and has since been supporting RainLily's helpline and crisis intervention services through baseline allocations.
RainLily's day in Kwong Wah Hospital has ended with the redevelopment of Kwong Wah Hospital commenced in 2011 has resulted in the centre's relocation. With the help from Dr Luk Che-chung, former Hospital Chief Executive of United Christian Hospital (UCH), RainLily's crisis centre moved into UCH. Later in 2014, the redevelopment of UCH must knock down the building that RainLily was in, we then moved to the current crisis centre in New Territories East.
❝ My relationship with RainLily started from Kwong Wah Hospital in 2000, and United Christian Hospital afterwards. The journey has been tough. Starting from nothing is difficult and persisting in the mission for long has also never been easy, but we have all made it through. The 20th Anniversary today is filled with gratefulness, and I am especially thankful to have you along the way. ❞

❝ I know about RainLily during the height of the global #MeToo movement. Linda S.Y. Wong, Executive Director, and a co-worker at RainLily met with me to discuss the lack of support measures and issues within reporting system faced by victims of sexual violence.

Then on the 13th December 2018, I introduced a motion requesting the government to set up crisis support centres for sexual violence victims and abused children in public hospitals, and the motion was eventually passed.
From searching for its home to establishment, RainLily has encountered difficulties and challenges.

去年，我們與 Breakazine 合作，58期《我們與性的距離》訪問了一位風雨蘭的服務使用者遭遇婚內強姦的傷痕故事。「#婚內強姦」法例在2003年爭取得來，令丈夫不能再擁有性侵的特權，但在缺少性教育的討論下，很多人現時對此仍然一無所知，夫妻間的性行為至今仍會被認為是天經地義。
❝ 後來再去了解，未至於是sex abuse吧，而是unwilling sex，也原來可以算是婚內強姦— 雖然我對強姦的想像是被人強行施暴那種，但我又不是。不過這些詞語對我來說，分別也不很大了。 ❞
— 節錄自 Breakazine 058 「無法承受的妻子責任」受助人訪問
Our collaboration with Breakazine 058 last year featured a story on marital rape from a RainLily service user. The law to exempt criminal responsibility for the assailant in marital rape was amended in 2003 after a journey of advocacy. However, because of the lack of sex education and open discussion on intimate relationship, marital rape remains a popularly unknown topic for people in Hong Kong. Many still think sex between married couples is a matter of course.
❝ As I tried to understand it later, it may not be sex abuse, but unwilling sex, and in fact it is considered marital rape. Although my imagination of rape involves forcible abuse, that is not my case. These terms do not make a significant difference to me anyway. ❞

❝ 性暴力受害人遭遇侵犯事件後，往往遇到以下情況：
*到醫院求醫*

*到警署報案*
軍裝警員：「咩事報警？」
CID警員一：請講發生咩事？」
CID沙展：「我係呢隊沙展，請問你發生咩事？」
CID幫辦：「我係呢隊幫辦，麻煩你講多少少發生咩事？」
法醫：「我需要幫你做法醫檢查，請問你發生咩事？」
*案件於法庭中審理約三至五天 *
辯方律師盤問：「請問你發生咩事？你是如何被侵犯？」
*有關審訊的網上新聞*
網民第一句的留言：「一定係『勞資糾紛』啦！^^ 」
無數性暴力受害人真實地面對這樣的情況。性暴力為當事人帶來不可磨滅的創傷，在制度裏尋找公義和求助的過程需重複又重複地講述痛苦經歷，身心俱疲。最後卻換來陌生人的一句冷言冷語，當中的難堪要親身經歷才能想像嗎？

❝ Victims of sexual violence often encounter the following situations after being violated:
*Seeking medical help in hospital*
Triage nurse: "What is your reason to see the doctor?"
Doctor: "What has happened?"
*Making a report at the police station*
Uniformed police: "What do you have to report?"
CID officer 1: "What has happened?"
CID sergeant: "I am the sergeant of the team. What has happened to you?"
CID inspector: I am the inspector of the team. Please tell us more on what has happened?"
Forensic pathologist: "I need to carry out a forensic medical examination for you. What has happened to you?"
*Trial hearing in court for about three to five days*
Defence counsel cross-examined: "What has happened to you? How were you being violated?"
*Online news about the trial*
First comment by internet user: "It must have been a 'labour dispute'!^^"
Numerous victims of sexual violence face such situations in real life. Sexual violence brings unhealable wound to the victims. In the process of seeking justice and help, they need to repeatedly recount their painful experience, which is both physically and mentally exhausting. In the end, what they get in return are some cruel remarks from strangers. Do you need to experience it yourself before you can imagine the torture and embarrassment?
Victims of sexual violence cannot choose to wipe away their traumatic memories. But we can choose to be kind. There are already enough straws on the camel's back. So why do we still have to add the final one which breaks its back? ❞

（原文為英文，中文內容由風雨蘭翻譯）
爭取並提供一站式性暴力受害人支援服務多年來都是風雨蘭的工作重點。追溯至風雨蘭成立之初，在2000年4月當時的立法會通過有關「性暴力」的議案，其中一項確認成立一站式服務減輕受害者再度受創的基本原則，同時要求政府對性暴力相關的法律、教育、數據掌握及支援服務各方面進行改善。
同年11月，風雨蘭獲香港賽馬會慈善信託基金提供三年服務經費的啟動撥款，於廣華醫院開設本港首間性暴力危機支援中心。中心除了為當事人提供情緒支援及危機介入的輔導服務外，亦協調醫療、報警、法醫採證等相關專業，以危機中心為基地提供一站式服務。並由專業社工陪同當事人一同面對有關程序，減低頻撲及不斷複述經歷的情況。
很遺憾地，廿年後本港的一站式性暴力危機支援中心只僅有風雨蘭正營運當中的一間，政府當局多年來都未能落實以專門及真正一站式的模式提供性暴力受害人緊急支援服務。2018年12月，立法會通過「要求政府在公營醫院內增設性暴力受害人及受虐兒童危機支援中心」的議案，要求政府分別於港、九、新界的三間公營醫院內增設符合相關國際標準*的24小時性暴力危機支援中心。
*在處理性暴力事件的過程中，司法、醫療及社會服務三者環環緊扣，缺一不可。據世界衛生組織發出的《對性暴力受害人之醫療及法律支援指引》，受害人的基本醫療支援是非常重要的，而醫療及司法服務（錄口供）應位於醫院或診所，指引認為在同一地點處理有關程序是最好的服務模式。
The advocacy for one-stop sexual violence victim support service has been the focus of RainLily’s work for years. Throwing back to the beginning of RainLily in April 2000, the Legislative Council at the time passed a motion related to sexual violence in Hong Kong. The motion confirmed the principle to establish one-stop services to reduce re-traumatisation for victim of sexual violence. The motion also demanded the government to begin reforming and improving the city’s legislation, education, data research, and support services around sexual violence.
In November 2000, RainLily has secured three years of kickstart funding from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. The first sexual violence crisis centre in Hong Kong was established at Kwong Wah Hospital. Apart from emotional support and crisis intervention, the centre also coordinates with medical, law enforcement, and forensic professionals to provide a centre-based one-stop service. With the accompaniment of the centre’s professional social worker throughout different procedures, the service is aimed at reducing the necessity for victims to rush around and provide account of the incident repeatedly.
For years, the government has failed in implementing dedicated and genuine one-stop sexual violence support service. After two decades, RainLily, is still regrettably the only one-stop sexual violence crisis centre in the city. In December 2018, the Legislative Council has passed a motion on 'Requesting the Government to set up crisis support centres for sexual violence victims and abused children in public hospitals', demanding the establishment of sexual violence crisis centres that meet international standards* in 3 public hospitals at Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and New Territories, respectively.
*Judicial, medical, and social services are equally vital and closely intersecting in the handling of sexual violence incidents. According to the Guidelines for Medico-Legal Care for Victims of Sexual Violence published by the World Health Organisation (2003), the arrangement of providing victims with health services along with access to police and judicial proceedings within a hospital or medical clinic setting assures victims’ medical and emotional needs can be addressed without delay. The co-location of these procedures is deemed as a preferred service model.

❝ 性暴力的發生過程往往為受害人帶來難以磨滅的傷害。她們既然肯踏出第一步來求助，自然希望得到我們的關懷和尊重。應對性暴力的一站式服務並不只是局限在醫院場所進行輔導工作，法醫搜證，錄取口供等。這牽涉多個層面的援助會在不同情況有所改變，例如受害人在事情發生後不久會希望確定有沒有被感染性病，另外還有些受害人會期望事件不會被廣泛地報導。風雨蘭的成立正正能夠做到這樣適切的援助。作為一位醫者，我們強調的並不是把每個病人求診的病徵分割處理，而是以全人的角度來對症下藥。風雨蘭專業認真地聆聽受害人以及體貼的跟進正是對受害人全面的治療。社會每天都發生著大小的事情，或許有人認為性暴力是遙不可及的東西。但請不要忘記，大家能夠身處在一個文明社會，背後是因為風雨蘭各同事的信念和成果 – 個人身體自主權利理應是受到保護，這是尊重人類價值的表現。 ❞

❝ Sexual Violence often brings indelible harm to the victims. Since they took the courage to seek help, a treatment of care and respect is commonly expected. One-stop service in response to sexual violence is not merely counselling, forensic examination, and statement taking done in the hospital. It involves dimensions of support that change depending on the situation, for example, the victim would like to ensure if they have been exposed to STDs within a temporal proximity after the assault happened; and some would also prefer the incident to not be widely reported. The establishment of RainLily could provide exactly such support for victims. As a doctor, we emphasise not to tackle a patient's symptoms separately, but to prescribe treatment for them in a holistic perspective. RainLily's professional and conscientious listening and attentive follow-up for victims of sexual violence are exactly a holistic treatment. All sort of things happens every day, some may think sexual violence is an unreachable topic. However, please remember that we could stay in a civilised society, behind it is the belief and achievements from RainLily – one's bodily autonomy should be safeguarded, as it is a representation of respect to human values. ❞

❝ 風雨蘭是在風雨過後更努力地綻放，不畏風雨，每一次風雨都只是為其開花舖路。
誰大誰惡誰正確? 還是人善人欺天不欺? 我雖勢弱言輕，決不虛作無聲。
六年的經歷，由迷失，質疑自己，無奈，沮喪，直到憤怒，才學會鼓起勇氣，找回希望，令我堅強起來，為自己討回公義。
當我鼓起勇氣的一刻，我在網上搜尋「性騷擾法律諮詢」，找到了風雨蘭，第一次感到被明白和相信，得到輔導員社工的同行，我不再孤單，漸漸增加信心去積極面對，情緒方面的支援絕不可少，得到義務律師的幫助下，在平機會與公司及加害人作調停，過程中的專業意見，好讓我平衡爭取過程中的期望，情理兼備下，是我最強的支援和後盾。

RainLily Legal Empowerment Service was established in 2014. For years, the service has been working with pro bono lawyers to provide legal information and rights-related advice to sexual violence victim-survivors of all genders, assisting them to be informed and prepared for complicated legal procedures.
❝ RainLily is the flower which blooms more beautifully after the storm. It stands strongly and defiantly in the rain, for every downpour only flourishes its blossoms.
He who has power and a loud voice must always be right? Or is it that a kind heart may be bullied by mortals but will be justly rewarded by fate? I may be powerless with a small voice. But I will never be silent.
During the six years of my experience, I had encountered confusion, self-doubt, helplessness, frustration and anger until I learnt how to muster the courage to find hope, strength and justice for myself.
At the moment when I gathered up my courage, I looked for "legal consultation for sexual harassment" on the internet and found RainLily. It was the first time when I felt understood and believed. With the companion of the counselling social workers, I no longer felt alone. Their emotional support is indispensable to boosting my confidence in facing my difficulty. Under the help of the pro bono lawyers, I mediated with the company and the perpetrator in the Equal Opportunities Commission. The professional advice from the lawyers at the Legal Clinic enabled me to balance my expectations in the process of fighting for my rights. Backed by both compassion and reason, it provided me with the greatest assistance and support.
Although "those matters" are as heavy as sand and stone in our hearts, we can let them go, or put them in a clam and wait for them to become pearls one day. ❞

風雨蘭自2011年起開始倡議法庭應為性暴力受害者提供保障，如以屏風及特別通道作遮蔽，及以電視直播方式作供等措施，減輕受害人的壓力及焦慮。2016年8月，司法機構修改指示，接受性暴力受害者申請於屏風後作供；而2018年4月，立法會通過修訂，賦予法庭可主動或酌情准許性罪行申訴人以電視直播聯繫在法庭提供證據。
❝ 法庭保護措施能令受害人有信心及安心地說出供詞及事實的真相。可能你認為：「報得警就預左要講架啦!」，但問題是我不害怕說出事實的全部，我害怕公眾看我的目光、媒體的評論，更重要是親友會因此而知道我有過這樣的經歷。
最後, 雖然我的案件敗訴, 但法官最終批准我能在使用法庭保護措施下出庭作證。在我心中, 我已覺得自己得到了勝利! 把受過的傷害，讓法官、陪審團，律師知道, 把心裡的陰霾及事實一一說出，我已經感到對人生有無比的盼望。我慶幸能得到風雨蘭輔導員的協助及輔導, 成為能夠幸福生存下去的一位過路人! ❞

RainLily has been advocating for court protective measures for sexual violence victim-survivors since 2011, such as screens and special passage to preserve their dignity and psychological well-being. In August 2016, the Judiciary allows victims of sexual offences to testify behind screens. In April 2018, the Legislative Council approved a bill that allows the court to permit victims to testify in court by live television link.
❝ Court protective measures could allow victims to tell the truth confidently and comfortably. Perhaps you would think: ‘You should have expected to talk about it when the case was reported’. What I am afraid of is not about telling the truth, but the way I am looked at by the public, comments made by the media, and more importantly, having my relatives and friends know about this experience of mine.
The judge approved my application to testify with court protective measures. Although I lost the case in the end, I feel like I have already won. Being able to share my long years of suffering and truths to the judge and the lawyers has given me hope in life. I am fortunate to have access to assistance and counselling from counsellors at RainLily, their work has made me a survivor who can live happily. ❞

❝ 風雨蘭成立至今已經二十年，性別平權一直是我們的目標，然而即使至今，遭遇性暴力的，超過九成仍然是女性；為女性充權、打破性別定型和迷思是我們工作中很重要的一環！
因此，「幸存者」是我們關鍵且密切的伙伴；風雨蘭工作的成果有賴幸存者對我們的信任，即使要再一次觸及傷口，性暴力幸存者均以莫大的勇氣、堅毅的意志，整理思緒、分享自己的經歷，以喚醒大眾對性暴力的關注，為其他經歷過性暴力的人發聲，希望最終我們的社會不再有人遭受性暴力的傷害。 事實上，性暴力倖存者透過司法程序爭取公義的過程一直都困難重重，雖然在風雨蘭和幸存者多年努力下，確實在現有制度内爭取了更多保障，但一些根本的問題始終難以解決，所以風雨蘭正進一步研究並開拓現有制度外可讓幸存者獲得真正公義的其他模式。
在過去數年，我們喜見幸存者發聲的力量不但震撼網上空間，亦同時帶動了社會對性暴力議題的關注和反思，加強了對幸存者的支援。未來，風雨蘭所有同工將繼續努力，期待與各位夥伴、支持者、服務使用者以及性暴力幸存者繼續攜手，推動性別平權，締造香港成為零性暴力社會。 ❞

❝ RainLily has been established for 20 years and achieving gender equity has always been our goal. Nevertheless, even as of today, over 90% of the victims of sexual violence are still women. Advocating for women's rights, breaking gender stereotypes and misconceptions on sexual violence are vital in the missions of our work!
Victim-survivors are RainLily's key and close partners. The success of our work relies heavily on the trust of survivors. With a lot of bravery and perseverance, survivors share their experience to raise public awareness of sexual violence and speak up for the rights of other victims in the hope that no one will experience sexual violence again in our society. In fact, survivors of sexual violence have always faced tremendous difficulties in seeking for justice in legal proceedings. Although RainLily and survivors have successfully fought for more protection within the existing system after years of hard work, some fundamental problems are still difficult to solve. Therefore, RainLily is currently conducting further research and exploring other options that can allow survivors to obtain justice outside the existing system.
In the past few years, we are glad to see that the power of speaking out has not only astonished the cyber world, but has also brought the issue of sexual violence to society's attention and reflection, and has strengthened the support for survivors. In the future, we will carry on to make every effort, and continue working with our partners, supporters, service users and survivors. Through collective action, we will promote gender equity and strive for a zero sexual violence Hong Kong. ❞
