Tatler Hong Kong - August 2022

En este asunto

For August, Tatler celebrates inclusion and diversity in everything from legal rights and employment to fashion and beauty. For our cover story, we spoke to members of the LGBTQ+ community about the hurdles they face when they want to do that most basic human thing of starting a family. We also speak to six models who buck the trend of what is “expected” of those working in fashion; chat with a man who is striving to make Hong Kong more accessible to the visually impaired with the city’s first guide dog school; and hear from a senior journalist at CNN about why diversity and inclusion matter in the newsroom and on our television screens.
