Beijing Talks Highlight Global Goals for Youth Development
Chinese State Councilor Shen Yiqin met UNICEF Executive Director Catherine Russell in Beijing this week, signaling stronger cooperation to support children’s rights worldwide. 🌍👧 Shen, who also leads the All-China Women’s Federation, emphasized China’s commitment to advancing education, healthcare, and rural revitalization programs for youth.
✨ 'China has prioritized children’s well-being through initiatives aligned with the UN’s Convention on the Rights of the Child,' Shen stated, highlighting efforts to ensure kids ‘learn, grow, and thrive’ in a rapidly changing world.
Russell praised China’s progress, calling it a 'key partner' in tackling global challenges. Upcoming projects will focus on child protection systems and bridging gaps in basic services—think school supplies for remote villages 🏫 and mobile health clinics 🩺.
With this partnership, China aims to share its experience while amplifying UNICEF’s mission. As Gen Z might say: collabs > competition. 💪
