In an era where effective dispute resolution is critical for fostering economic development, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) is setting a new standard in mediation. Recently, The Hong Kong Department of Justice hosted its inaugural GBA Mediator Training Course of Hong Kong 2024, a pivotal initiative aimed at enhancing cross-boundary dispute resolution within this dynamic region. Mediation experts from Guangdong and Macao engaged with participants to explore the unique legal and cultural frameworks of the GBA, emphasising the importance of integrating diverse mediation practices under the "one country, two systems and three jurisdictions" approach. This course serves as a cornerstone in the ongoing effort to strengthen the rule of law in the GBA, with the first cohort of participants now on the path to becoming accredited mediators. As the GBA continues to evolve, initiatives like these not only bolster legal cooperation, but also empower professionals dedicated to navigating the complexities of cross-boundary disputes. The Joint PR team were happy to assist in bringing this event to life. Photo credit and more information: https://lnkd.in/ghg3AU7v #JointPR #DepartmentofJustice #HongKong #GBA #Mediation

Nonprofits have a unique and powerful story to tell, one that resonates with compassion, community, and change. Leveraging public relations effectively can amplify their message and purpose, turning their mission into a movement. This can be done by showcasing their real-world impact through compelling visuals, testimonials, and transparent updates on progress and challenges, with this approach helping to build a sense of trust and engagement with their audience. Rise Wise Foundation, for example, is committed to promoting animal-assisted therapy and helping those in need. Recently, they celebrated the graduation of their first group of therapy dogs that will serve as therapy dog interns in various settings, including therapy for SEN children, school visits, and home visits for the elderly. The graduation ceremony garnered media coverage, demonstrating the effectiveness of having robust PR plans and strategy in place. Strategic PR efforts also enables nonprofits to effectively utilise the digital landscape, with channels such as social media used to reach a broader audience. Engaging with influencers and thought leaders can further extend their reach and help build a community of advocates who share their passion and vision. By integrating these strategies, nonprofits can create a powerful narrative that not only raises awareness of their cause, but also drives real change, ensuring their mission resonates widely and deeply. #JointPR #Nonprofits #PublicRelations #PRStrategy #SocialImpact

Global relationships are the foundation of economic growth and innovation. The recent Networking Reception of the Joint Legal Workshop, co-organised by The Hong Kong Department of Justice, the Korean Ministry of Justice, and Invest Hong Kong, is a testament to the benefits of such international collaborations. This event, which brought together over 150 participants from the Korean business sector and Hong Kong's legal practitioners, is the first of its kind since the signing of the Memorandum of Co-operation (MOU) on 25 September 2019, and underscores the deepening ties and enhanced cooperation between the regions. The strong economic relationship between Korea and Hong Kong is demonstrated by the presence of approximately 16,000 Koreans in Hong Kong and 146 Korean companies, including 21 financial institutions. With this not only strengthening bilateral trade, but also the overall economic landscape of the region, fostering a climate of mutual growth and prosperity. Hong Kong’s pivotal role in this relationship is strengthened by our unique legal system, which operates under the "one country, two systems" principle, and offers a legal framework characterised by an independent judiciary, business-friendly civil and commercial laws, and a wealth of legal professionals with international experience. This robust legal infrastructure supports comprehensive services, from setting up businesses to managing complex international transactions, making Hong Kong an ideal hub for business growth and development. We look forward to watching the further growth and success of Korean businesses in Hong Kong.
