‘EM-Power’ is a project launched by a group of non-Chinese speaking (NCS) and ethnic minority (EM) students at HSUHK. The major goals of this student-initiated project are to connect NCS students and build up their rapport, and to promote the diverse cultures of the ethnic minorities in the HSUHK community. EM-Power also advocates mutual support among members and personal growth through experience learning.
With the coordination by the SEN Support of the Student Affairs Office (SAO), EM-Power organised its first online interactive activity, ‘Dream Beyond Circumstances’, on 25 February 2022. Two local-born Indian speakers, Youtuber ‘New Dellily’ and stand-up comedian Mr Vivek Mahbubani, were invited to share their success stories of overcoming racism during their primary and secondary school years, and how they explored themselves and developed their non-traditional careers in Hong Kong. An impressive 85% of EM student participants agreed that this activity was encouragingly positive and inspirational. The activity also provided EM students of the University with a chance to strengthen their connection with each other. Following such a widely appreciated activity, EM-Power will organise more interactive and multi-cultural activities in the future.
Reflection of Students
“We shouldn’t be confused about our identity. Someone can be HongKongese with Indian background. It doesn’t really matter in the end as we are all people of Earth.”
(By Student SINGH)
“The speakers shared their experiences, and they gave suggestions regarding what kind of attitude we should use to face difficult moments. It was not only inspiring, but also motivating with positive energy.”
(By Student ANJUM)
