臺灣社工專協對當今香港局勢的聲明：

香港政府應立即停止違反人權的鎮壓與逮捕行動

香港自6月9日百萬民眾上街抗議政府修訂「逃犯條例」後，示威及抗議行動不斷延燒，香港街頭及校園出現多起激烈的警民大規模衝突。香港警察強勢驅離、鎮壓、逮捕參與示威及抗議的民眾及學生，而更加激化香港社會的對立。

台灣社會工作專業人員協會基於「台灣社會工作倫理守則」，以及國際社會工作人員聯合會（International Federation of Social Workers, IFSW）的「社會工作全球定義」，支持社會正義、人權、集體責任，以及尊重社會的多元性等普世價值與原則，支持非暴力、和平、民主的社會行動，而對香港當前的局勢表達深刻的關切，並願與世界各地的社會工作者共同合作。

因此，我們堅決反對香港政府壓制香港公民的民主運動，並呼籲立即釋放所有被非法逮捕的香港公民及外籍人士。我們深刻了解，任何透過暴力鎮壓及逮捕的方式來讓民眾對公共議題噤聲，都會引發無止盡的仇恨循環，並產生重大的歷史創傷。而置身其中的受害者其心靈創傷更可能因此終身難以平復，甚而銘刻在其家族及社會的集體記憶中。

基於此，我們強烈主張：

一、香港政府應立即停止一切違反人權的鎮壓與逮捕行動，以保障人民的生命、人格、財產免於任何形式暴力的壓制和侵犯。

二、反對香港政府和香港警察對人民的不當鎮壓與逮捕，並要求立即停止任何的武力攻擊行為。

三、釋放所有非法逮捕的香港公民及外籍人士。

四、要求香港政府提出切實可行的解決方案，以恢復香港社會的和平及秩序。

五、我們支持香港社會工作組織對保障人權的各項官方行動及聲明，例如刊載於

A Statement of Taiwan Association of Social Workers

We, the Taiwan Association of Social Workers (TASW) based on the professional code of ethics in social work, global definition of the social work in the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW), support social justice, human rights, collective responsibility, non-violent, peace, multi-cultural society universal values. Therefore, we are extremely concerned about the current situation in Hong Kong and willing to work together with social workers all over the world.

We resolutely against the Hong Kong government to suppress Hong Kong citizens in democratic movements and call for the government immediately release all Hong Kong citizens and foreigners who have been illegally arrested. We realized that the oppression of violence, ways of arrest will lead to the enmity of people and a history of trauma. The victims who are exposed to these events more likely vulnerable to life-long, the trauma also imprinted on their family and society.

Based on this, we strongly claim:

First, the Hong Kong government immediately stops all the illegally arrest, to protect the citizen to be free from all forms of discrimination, suppression, and violation of violence.

Second, we are firmly opposed to any unjust suppression on the legal pro-democracy demonstrations by the Hong Kong government and polices, and demand the immediate suspension of the force attack.

Third, release all illegally arrested Hong Kong citizens and foreigners, and fair investigations and trails of all arrests.

Fourth, to request the Hong Kong government to propose an appropriate solution to resume peace and order in Hong Kong society.

Fifth, we support the official actions and statements of the social workers association of Hong Kong to protect human rights, such as this website:
