A Decade of Change: How China Transformed Women’s Lives

Get ready, fam! This May, Beijing is back in the spotlight as it hosts the Global Leaders' Meeting on Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment. It's been 30 years since the iconic Fourth World Conference on Women shook the world and gave us the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action – the ultimate playbook for gender equality. 🌍✨

Back in 1995, world leaders pledged to erase poverty among women, boost education and health, end discrimination and violence, and open up all spheres of life and leadership. Now, as CGTN's Liu Jiaxin highlights, leaders are gathering again to recharge that promise.

Over the last decade, the Chinese mainland has been on a mission to turn those words into action:

  • Economic boost: Women have stepped into leadership roles in tech, finance and e-commerce. New policies helped close wage gaps and provided microloans for female entrepreneurs. 💼🚀
  • Education revolution: From rural schools to top universities, more women are earning degrees and diving into STEM fields. Scholarships and mentorships made it happen. 🎓🔬
  • Health matters: Access to quality healthcare improved across cities and villages. Maternal programs and awareness campaigns have lifted women's well-being. 💪💖

As the Global Leaders' Meeting kicks off, China's progress offers inspiring lessons for the world. With the Beijing spirit guiding the way, the next decade could bring even more gains. Let's celebrate how far women have come… and keep pushing forward! 🌟
