The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region attaches utmost importance to the well-being of children and committed to providing a safe and nourishing environment for the healthy and happy growth and optimal development of our children so as to achieve their fullest potential. 

The Commission on Children was established by the Government on 1 June 2018 to address the diversified issues related to children.  It is an on-going, action-oriented and high-level advisory body which provides overall steer on children initiatives; sets policy directions, strategies and priorities related to the development and advancement of children; and oversees its implementation.  The Commission co-ordinates the efforts of various government bureaux and departments, teams up with different sectors and professions in society to safeguard the well-being of children and builds a pro-child and inclusive Hong Kong.

Since its establishment, the Commission has been executing its functions through four working groups set up under the Commission to undertake specific areas of work, including children protection, children with specific needs, research and development, and promotion of children's rights and development, public education and engagement.

The Commission conducts public engagement activities on specific themes at regular intervals to canvass the views of various stakeholders and children on an extensive range of child-related issues.  The Commission also has launched the Funding Scheme for Children's Well-being and Development to support various promotional and public educational projects for promoting the interests, well-being and development of children. 

This website provides information on the various work of the Commission and its children development activities.  We look forward to your staunch support for the work of the Commission.
