The main target beneficiaries are working professionals and workplaces in Hong Kong, and the impact will be delivered through running a Mental Health Awareness event, and active dissemination of research findings to:
(a) key stakeholders in participating workplaces, such as HR and other relevant departments, organizational psychologists, etc.; and
(b) wider local and international academic and professional communities.
