/in Media Release /by admin
2025年8月28日(星期四),慧贤会(Way In Network)联同新南威尔士州警察总部(NSW Police Force),于 Day Street 警察局成功举办妇女安全讲座“拒绝仇恨犯罪”。此讲座为慧贤会妇女赋权系列活动之一,旨在提升移民及多元文化背景妇女对安全议题的知识,并加强她们对仇恨犯罪的辨识与应对能力,进一步提升法律意识。

活动伊始,由新南威尔士州警察总部雪梨市警区指挥官Martin Fileman APM(Detective Superintendent Martin Fileman APM)致开幕词。Martin提及,新州近期通过立法,正式将仇恨犯罪列为刑事罪行,这对保护弱势群体免受种族与宗教仇恨暴力具有重要意义。他指出,近期社区中出现多起激进言论与行为,尤其在多宗抗议活动期间,激起了民众的不安。他强调,澳洲是一个多元文化融合的国家,“我们每个人,无论背景,几乎都是移民的后代”,并分享自己家族从战乱中的欧洲移民来澳洲的经历,贡献于社会。他呼吁社会尊重差异,共同维护安全与和谐,强调极端思想与行为在澳洲不应被容忍。

随后,慧贤会会长萧嘉敏女士(President Jessie Xiao)致词,衷心感谢Martin Fileman APM长期以来对慧贤会的支持,以及他领导的警区与华人社区的紧密联繫。她亦特别感谢仇恨犯罪专责组主管Brad Johnston总督察(Detective Chief Inspector Brad Johnston)莅临并提供精闢的仇恨犯罪专题简报,内容丰富、具高度教育意义。
萧会长亦感谢当晚的活动主持人——来自警方的多元文化联络官 Dilara Nikolovski 女士,令整个活动流程顺畅圆满。她并对慧贤会筹委会成员表达敬意,包括:
• 顾问: Florence Chau女士
• 中文秘书:Faith Tan女士
• 公共事务专员兼口译员:Mandy Van女士
• 活动专员: Stella Su女士
在发言中,萧会长强调,提升移民女性对自身权益的认知至关重要,让她们学会如何保护自己,遇见不当行为或不公义时能勇敢站出来、向警方寻求协助。
“我们非常自豪能与警方并肩合作,为社区妇女传递关键知识与法律支援。”萧会长表示,“当妇女拥有资讯与工具,她们将更有信心面对歧视与暴力,为自己发声。我们亦向近日在维多利亚州不幸殉职的两位警员及其家属致以最深切的哀悼与敬意。”
研讨会的重点环节由Brad Johnston总督察主讲,他深入剖析了仇恨犯罪的定义、识别方法、何时报桉,以及相关法律途径与惩罚措施。他强调仇恨行为对社区所造成的深远影响,并鼓励与会者及早举报潜在事件。现场随后进行问答环节,参与者踊跃提问,气氛热烈。
此外,高级警长 Nathan Carroll主持了实用的安全知识讲解,涵盖以下重点:
• 人身安全意识
• 家庭暴力防范
• 如何使用 Empower You 手机应用程式进行事件纪录与求助
• 如何透过 Emergency+ 手机应用程式快速联络紧急服务单位

活动最后,由慧贤会创会会长暨荣誉终身会长何沉慧霞博士(Hon. Dr. Helen Sham-Ho)致闭幕辞与感谢辞。何沉慧霞博士表示,即使自身具备法律背景与过去在议会立法的经历,此次讲座仍令她获益匪浅。她认为,该活动有效强化了女性、特别是移民背景女性的知识与信心,使她们得以辨识不当行为、运用法律手段保护自己。
是次活动参与踊跃,现场提供中文口译与多元文化关怀,确保不同背景的参加者皆能感受到尊重与安全感。该讲座展示了慧贤会与新州警方携手合作,致力于建立一个更安全、更具包容性的社区环境,让所有妇女——特别是多元文化背景者——能被聆听、被保护,并真正获得赋权。
