UBC HONG KONG STUDIES INITIATIVE - RESEARCH ASSISTANT
“Documenting the Hong Kong Protests” expands on UBC Hong Kong Studies Initiative's (HKSI) mission to increase the scholarly resources available for the public and the academic community about the current situation in Hong Kong by preserving as much media and documentation as possible given the growing fear that much of this information may soon be lost due to censorship and media control. Documenting Hong Kong's transformation will ensure that something is preserved for educational usage and for activism.
