Hey fam! With the Global Leaders' Meeting on Women landing in Beijing from October 13-14, we caught up with Huang Xiaowei, vice-president of the All-China Women's Federation and vice chairperson of the National Working Committee on Children and Women of the State Council. She's here to break down the big agenda! 🤝✨
Why This Summit Matters
This gathering builds on the Beijing Declaration & Platform for Action – a key blueprint from 1995 that set global gender equality goals. Huang highlights how the Chinese mainland has taken huge strides in boosting women's all-round development, from more female leaders to better access to education and healthcare. 📚💼
China's Global Role
According to Huang, the Chinese mainland is sharing its learnings worldwide through funding, tech-driven mentorship, and community programs. Think digital platforms and local hubs that empower women in rural areas to start businesses or lead projects. 🌐🚀
Looking Ahead
With the summit just around the corner, Huang is optimistic. She hopes leaders will set clear goals for equal pay, digital inclusion, and support for working moms. "When we lift women up, whole communities rise together," she says. 🙌
