Submission for the multimedia competition under EOC’s new youth engagement initiative “Generation i” will close on 26 January 2019. Co-organised by the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups Jockey Club Media 21, the programme welcomes all secondary school students in Hong Kong to create an A3-size comic strip or a short video of 2 minutes or below on what equality means to them. Cash prizes as high as HK$8,000 will be awarded to impactful works that communicate why diversity and inclusion matter.

To enable participants to develop a creative vision as well as practical skills in comic drawing and video production, two workshops were conducted in November 2018 by local illustrator and cartoonist Dreamergo and award-winning director Jevons AU respectively. Speaking from their personal experience, they showed that creativity is not some elusive concept, but an effective channel to express one’s beliefs and commitment to social causes. Videos featuring highlights of the workshops have been uploaded to the EOC YouTube channel. To view the footage, please click the link below.
