It has developed a long-term vision and strategy to address matters of concern to women in a holistic and systematic manner. It keeps under review policies and measures related to women and has initiated surveys and research on women-related matters. The Commission's mission is "To enable women to fully realize their due status, rights and opportunities in all aspects of life". It has identified three priority areas of action - gender mainstreaming, empowerment and public education. Women's safety at home and in public has been one of the major areas of concern under empowerment of women. </P> <P>Further information can be obtained through <A href="http://www.women.gov.hk">www.women.gov.hk</A><BR></P></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR> <TR vAlign=top> <TD width=153 bgColor=#000000><IMG height=3 src="../images/general/spacer.gif" width=153></TD> <TD width=5><IMG height=3 src="../images/general/spacer.gif" width=5></TD> <TD width=602><IMG height=3 src="../images/general/botdot.jpg" width=602></TD></TR> <TR vAlign=top> <TD width=153 bgColor=#cc0000 height=31>&nbsp;</TD> <TD width=5 bgColor=#ffffff>&nbsp;</TD> <TD width=602> <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=5 width=602 border=0> <TBODY> <TR bgColor=#ffffff> <TD><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Taipei" size=-1><B>2003</B> <IMG height=11 src="../images/general/copy.gif" width=12>| <B><A href="notice.html">Important notices</A></B></FONT></TD> <TD align=right><FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Taipei" size=-1>Last Revision Date: 15 December 2011</FONT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></FORM></TBODY></TABLE></BODY></HTML>
