Description

Hong Kong might seem to be close to achieving gender equality; however, misogyny and slut-shaming are still prevalent among young individuals, particularly on online platforms and forums. The society's expectations placed on men and women still limit the way many people behave and perceive others.

Redo Gender aims to promote gender equality in Hong Kong through design activism. It seeks to raise awareness of existing gender inequality and misogyny in Hong Kong's society through a series of installations and publications. Additionally, Redo Gender aims to educate the public on gender-related concepts and theories from multiple perspectives. Finally, it encourages individuals to defy societal gender expectations and embrace others who choose to do so.
