Society for Community Organization: Man in The Cage

According to The Economist, Hong Kong is the most liveable city in the world. But Over 100,000 people live in cage homes and other inadequate environments. Dining, sleeping and doing laundry must all take place within only 40 square feet of space. Local artists were asked to create mini cage homes and residents. The installations were then placed around the city’s most affluent streets.

People were shocked to learn that this is a reality for many residents in Hong Kong. In order to help stop this problem, people could take immediate action by scanning a QR petition and sending it directly to Chief Executive of Hong Kong, C.Y. Leung.

The petition urged the government to create more adequate public housing for these impoverished residents.
