Today, there are over 360,000 Migrant Domestic Workers (MDWs) in our city. Behind closed doors, they provide an often invisible care and support system that enables mothers with young children and daughters with ageing parents to be able to work. Not considered ‘local’, they are frequently overlooked and excluded from services. Many are not available on a Sunday, and they are the only day off each week.
Thousands of miles away from family and, in many cases, separated from children, with the hope of affording them a brighter future, they spend years (sometimes decades!) calling Hong Kong ‘home’. Yet, their time here can be incredibly lonely, disempowering and full of vulnerability.
Like 55% of MDWs in Hong Kong, our inspiring speakers and women of power hail from the Philippines. Like an estimated 40% of MDWs in our city, they are working mothers striving to provide for their children.
