街上、公園、街市，外籍家庭傭工每天與我們在城市裡擦肩而過。工人姊姊們離鄉別井，每一位異鄉人都有著自己的故事。30多萬外籍家庭傭工每天處理僱主的「家頭細務」，通過近乎無間斷的工作時間，為香港無數家庭分擔照顧者的責任。



一星期只有一天的休息日，工人姊姊得以放下工作與同鄉、朋友們聚會。有些工人姊姊更願意花上休息日到香港的山野撿垃圾、到海邊淨灘。當談及環保、走塑時，工人姊姊們也是關鍵持份者：每天買餸煮飯，處理僱主家庭裡的垃圾，到分類回收，到每週聚會時用上的餐具容器。姊姊們自己如何看待塑膠使用問題？在日常中又有著什麼的嘗試？



繼南丫島淨灘活動、design thinking設計思維工作坊後，「Plastic-free together」計畫迎來「田野考察」階段。中環，香港城市的心臟地帶，亦是工人姊姊週日最常聚會的地方。1月28日與2月4日兩次，學生將走進中環皇后像廣場，拉近與工人姊姊的「陌生人」距離，通過短片放映、問卷採訪形式與工人姊姊打開跨文化對話。



其中，放映精選塑膠在菲印跨文化漂流的故事短片，學生與姊姊共同想像塑膠、此地與他方；基於短片放映，學生將與姊姊展開問卷採訪和對話，了解工人姊姊的塑膠使用認知和習慣：工人姊姊幾時最常用到膠袋？她們對垃圾徵費制度的認識如何？我們都面臨著哪些減塑的考驗？兩天的考察下來，我們希望看見塑膠的跨文化面向，共同探索環境知識與社會改變。

——

Every day in Hong Kong, we encounter domestic helpers on the streets, in parks, and at wet markets. Each of these helpers has a unique story to share from their home country. Over 300,000 foreign domestic helpers tackle their employers’ household chores daily, with almost non-stop working hours, taking on caregiving responsibilities for families in Hong Kong. Despite having only one day off per week, some workers choose to spend their free time collecting waste in the hills and cleaning the beaches of Hong Kong with their environmental commitment.



When it comes to plastic reduction, domestic workers are key stakeholders as well. They purchase and prepare food daily, manage waste disposal in their employers’ homes, segregate recyclables, and utilize reusable tableware and containers for their weekly gatherings. What are their perspectives on plastic use, and how do they make efforts to minimize its impact in their daily lives?



Following the beach clean-up on Lamma Island and the design thinking workshop, the “Plastic-free together” project now moves to the “fieldwork”. On January 28th and February 4th, students will visit Central to engage in cross-cultural dialogue with domestic helpers through film screenings and questionnaire interviews. Through screening videos depicting the cross-cultural journey of plastic waste in the Philippines and India, students and domestic helpers will collectively explore the impact of plastics in different places. Students will then conduct questionnaire interviews and dialogues with the helpers to understand their knowledge and behaviours related to plastic use: when do they most commonly use plastic bags? What is their idea of the forthcoming MSW Charging scheme? What challenges do we all face in reducing plastic use?



Through two days of research, we aim to uncover the cross-cultural aspects of plastic waste and embark on a collective exploration of environmental awareness and social change.



Date: Jan 28 & Feb 4 (Sunday)

Time: 10:00 – 16:00

Venue: Central

Language: English/Cantonese/Putonghua

Target: University students

Quota: 20 participants



*Free of charge, students will receive subsidies (64HKD/hour)

*Priority will be given to those who participate in the whole two-day program.
