Three decades ago, the world witnessed a historic moment for gender equality: the United Nations Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, where the groundbreaking Beijing Declaration was born. Fast-forward to today, and China is hosting the Global Leaders' Meeting on Women, reigniting the conversation about progress and challenges. 🚀
A Reunion of Trailblazers
CGTN's special program 'SHE' brings together icons like Irina Bokova (former UNESCO chief), Gertrude Mongella (women's rights pioneer), Olympic champion Yang Yang, and ballet star Tan Yuanyuan. Their reunion isn’t just nostalgic—it’s a 🔥 call to action. How do they keep pushing boundaries in a rapidly changing world?
From Beijing to Today
The 1995 conference set a global roadmap for women's rights, and China’s modernization journey has since amplified women’s roles in tech, politics, and culture. But the fight isn’t over. As Yang Yang puts it: 'Every goal we score on ice is a step toward equality off it.' 🏒✨
What’s Next?
With rising digital opportunities and persistent gaps in leadership and pay, the 'SHE' dialogue highlights resilience and innovation. As Tan Yuanyuan says: 'Art and advocacy dance together—both need passion and precision.' 💃🎯
