Minu, a student from Sri Lanka, is studying at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She always wanted to study abroad and chose Hong Kong because she liked its international feel and diverse culture.

Minu's family is middle-class, and her father agreed to her studying in Hong Kong only if she got a full scholarship. She found that Hong Kong universities welcome international students and offer scholarships to help with costs.

At the university, Minu enjoys the mix of students and the support available. She aims to work in international business after graduation and believes her time in Hong Kong will prepare her well for that future.

Agita Pasaribu, a 32-year-old practising lawyer from Indonesia, has long been an advocate for women's rights. In 2020, she founded a mobile application to provide emotional and legal support to victims of cyberbullying and has actively advocated for the passage of the Sexual Violence Law in Indonesia.

In 2024, Agita brought her experiences to the University of Hong Kong, engaging with individuals from diverse backgrounds. This exchange invigorated her professional journey and reinforced her belief that the integration of technology and education can overcome various barriers, empowering women with a stronger voice.
