HSUHK Inclusion Week - We’re the SAME but UNIQUE 恒大共融週－「我們相同卻獨特
The annual Inclusion Week themed ‘We’re the SAME but UNIQUE’ was organised by the Student Affairs Office (SAO) in the week of 10 March 2022. Through thematic exhibitions, workshops and talks, the campaign enhanced HSUHK students’ and staff members’ understanding of people with special educational needs (SEN), raised their awareness of inclusion and diversity, and promoted a caring culture on campus. As the inaugural event of the Inclusion Week, the College Assembly – HSUHK Liberal Agora entitled ‘We’re the SAME but UNIQUE – DJ Sammy Leung’s Sharing on Special Educational Needs’ was held on 10 March 2022. Mr Sammy Leung, DJ of Commercial Radio Hong Kong, was invited to be the guest speaker. He shared his experiences of fighting his attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder and depression, and of embracing and transforming his special qualities to excel in his study and career. He also shared tips on coping with stress. The sharing was well received, attracting around a thousand participants online. In addition, HSUHK students and staff members interacted with people with hearing and visual impairments and autistic youth by participating in various activities. These activities included ‘Hong Kong Sign Language Experiential Class’, ‘Human Library – Sharing of Sightfeeling on the World of People with Visual Impairment’, ‘Twist a Future: Balloon-arts Workshop’, ‘Founder of Autistic Child Life Building Development Consultancy Limited Shares About Autism Spectrum Disorders’, etc. As the Inclusion Week’s finale, the ‘BEYOND THE DREAM Online Screening and Director’s Post-screening Sharing’ received encouraging feedback from HSUHK members. Along with watching the local film ‘BEYOND THE DREAM’, participants learned about the filmmaking process and experienced the inner world of people suffering from mental disorders through the sharing of Mr Kiwi Chow, the director of the film. 由學生事務處籌辦的共融週以「我們相同卻獨特」為主題，於2022年 3月10日至3月17日順利舉行。透過一連串主題展覽、工作坊和講座， 活動加深恒大學生和教職員對有特殊教育需要（SEN）人士的了解，提 高他們對共融與多元理念的關注，並在校園推廣關愛文化。

I will encourage my fellow students to make friends with them.” “I realised how visually impaired people overcome barriers to achieve things that we find difficult.” 參加者感想： 「從周導演口中得知《幻愛》的創作意念，讓我體會到我們 應該互相尊重，減少偏見。」 「我更了解自閉症同學的需要，會鼓勵同學與他們成為朋 友。」 「我認識到視障人士如何克服障礙，完成一般人眼中難以完 成的事情。」
