History
The Hong Kong Homemakers' Alliance (HKHA) was founded voluntarily by a group of existing members of the Hong Kong Federation of Women's Centres (HKFWC) in March 4, 2001. The Alliance was primarily concerned about the lack of support and social recognition for homemakers, that are full-time stay-at-home fathers or mothers. Its mandate is to raise public awareness about the burden on homemakers, advocate for the societal and economic values of housework, ,provide opportunities for education and development for homemakers, and to promote the socio-economical status of homemakers through eliminating biases.
Being a direct subordinate group of the HKFWC, the Alliance operated within the centres location and scope of services of the HKFWC. It launched forums on retirement protection and recurring health problems of homemakers, conducted research on time use of full-time mother, and met with ministers and lawmakers to impact social policy.
