  • IMPACTxAsia | Why Gut Health Is So Crucial to Holistic Wellbeing

    Over the last few months, the world has changed significantly and our societies and businesses are learning to cope with ‘the new normal’ – whatever that might be – for the foreseeable future.


    While our governments struggle to implement safety measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 while ensuring economies and livelihoods are kept afloat, a certain duty of care has defaulted to the business community and many of us are looking to our senior management for direction and reassurance.

  • IMPACTxAsia Back to Basics - Understanding LGBT+ Terminology in celebration of IDAHOTB

    To commemorate IDAHOTB (International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia - 17 May 2020) and LGBT+ Pride Month in June, Community Business has collated an LGBT+ Dictionary to help our supporters and allies understand and use people’s correct terminology respectfully and confidently. 


    Self-identification and pride are powerful tools and we want to encourage our community to equip themselves with the vocabulary to celebrate and support each other. Over the next few weeks, we will be sharing a selection of terms related to and describing the LGBT+ community – some of these might be old friends and well-known, while others may be more recently coined or new to your parlance - the team at Community Business have certainly enjoyed arming ourselves with this robust dictionary and brushing up on our technical knowledge. 


    We built our glossary by referencing the Fenway Institute LGBT+ Glossary, as well as the University of Massachusetts Amherst - Stonewall Center LGBTQIA+ Terminology Handout. Our campaign is peppered with the rare Hong Kong Pink Dolphin – unique in colour and a symbol of hope for the future. In each graphic, our chosen mascot plays with a ball that incorporates the relevant pride flag – so even if the terminology is familiar to you, perhaps you’ll learn something new about its visual identity.

  • IMPACTxAsia | Kindness During COVID

    In a very timely move, the Mental Health Foundation announced recently that it was changing the theme of Mental Health Awareness Week (18 – 24 May 2020) from sleep to kindness to respond to the coronavirus outbreak. 


    As pundits and politicians around the world speculate about how long social distancing and virtual working will need to continue, we have seen daily acts of kindness – both on a personal and professional level – taking hold of global conversations. 


    The advent of technology means that most people can remain connected with family, friends and colleagues despite isolation measures and as a result, we have seen people taking the time to check-in meaningfully with those they might usually only text or email.

  • IMPACTxAsia | IWD 2020 From HeForShe To EachForEqual
    In driving gender equality, who gets left out of the conversation? In 2014, it was men according to UN Women. As the spokesperson of its HeForShe campaign, Emma Watson called on men to advocate for gender equality, as she asked, "How can we affect change in the world when only half of it is invited or feels welcome to participate in the conversation?" It is important to include men in the movement because gender equality matters to them, too. As she argued, men can be trapped by gender roles and expectations as much as women do. But with their male privilege, they can help women get their voices heard. Their participation can take different forms, be it calling out gender biases at work or sharing parental responsibilities at home.
