Trapped in Cage Homes 侷住體驗館

Join us for an eye-opening tour by the Society for Community Organization (SoCO). Immerse yourself in the intimate living spaces of Hong Kong residents facing housing challenges through full-scale home models.

Residents will guide you, sharing personal stories to deepen your understanding of how limited housing affects individuals and communities. A "Human Library" session will enable direct exchange, further illuminating the profound impact of housing challenges.

This isn’t just a tour—it’s a call to reflect, empathize, and take action for a fairer society.

誠邀您參加香港社區組織協會(SoCO)舉辦的深度導覽活動，親身體驗基層市民在狹窄居住環境中的真實生活。活動精心還原實物大小的居住空間，讓您切身感受「侷住」的日常挑戰。

活動中，受住屋問題困擾的居民將分享親身經歷，現場更設有真人圖書館與參加者直接交流，帶您深入理解，居住困境對個人與社區的深遠影響。

這不僅僅是一次導覽，更是一趟反思、感同身受，以行動建設更公義的社會。
