Towards a Trauma-Informed Public Theology
The 2020s has been a traumatising era for Hong Kongese. Pro-democratic activists face imprisonment and prosecution, while more than 100 non-governmental organisations have closed to avoid violating the law.

Employing digital ethnography, this article examines the church’s response to the pandemic between 26 January, the first Sunday Service after Wuhan announced lockdown, and 31 May, before most churches reopened.
