Mexican Student Champions Women’s Rights in China

When Moraima Ordoñez first encountered Chinese dramas as a teenager in Mexico, little did she know it would spark a journey to Peking University – now she's decoding legal systems and cultural bridges between nations!

The 25-year-old law grad is pursuing a master's degree in Chinese law, driven by a mission to compare women's rights protections in her homeland and the Chinese mainland. 'Spanish resources were scarce,' she explains. 'I needed to see China's approach firsthand – it's like solving a puzzle with missing pieces!'

Through China-Mexico friendship programs, Moraima discovered unexpected parallels: 'Both cultures value family deeply. Modern Chinese women balancing careers and traditions? Totally relatable!'

With APEC 2023 approaching, she's got a message for world leaders: 'Let's make gender equality the main character this year – not just a side plot!' Her research could become the script for stronger international collaboration.
