Nurturing Youngsters Discharging Social Responsibility — Privacy Commissioner’s Office Continues to Fully Support the “Strive and Rise Programme” and Organise Summer Internship Programme

Following its efforts in 2024 and 2025 in organising educational talks for participants of the Second and Third Cohort of the “Strive and Rise Programme” (Programme), the Hong Kong International Data Privacy Academy (Academy) organised another educational talk earlier for participants of the Fourth Cohort, and explained to around 50 participants the roles and responsibilities of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD), as well as its work in handling complaints, combatting doxxing offences, and promoting the protection of personal data privacy. Participants were also reminded to say “No” to cyberbullying and doxxing. In addition, a guided tour of the PCPD’s office was arranged for the participants to gain first-hand knowledge of the work of PCPD.
 
The PCPD is one of the supporting organisations of the Programme. Led by the Government and through collaboration among the Government, the business sector and the community, the Programme aims to harness the collective strength of society to support secondary school students from underprivileged families by broadening their horizons, strengthening their self-confidence and fostering a positive outlook on life.
 
Incidentally, the PCPD organises a Summer Internship Programme to provide university students with internship opportunities, enabling them to gain practical work experience and build a strong foundation for their future career development. This year, two interns from The University of Hong Kong and The Chinese University of Hong Kong participated in the Internship Programme.
