Lin Jian said that Liu Yang, China's first female astronaut to enter space, as an outstanding representative of women in the world, delivered a keynote speech via video, introducing the achievements of the high-quality development concept of China's women's cause in the new era. Liu Yang stated that as beneficiaries and practitioners of the spirit of the Beijing Declaration, and witnesses of technology empowering women, when the engines of the Shenzhou spacecraft were ignited, they not only felt the shock of 600 tons of thrust, but also the power lifted by billions of Chinese women. The equal concept of "no gender in front of standards" in China's aerospace industry highlights the core logic of the development of China's women's cause, which is to create a fair competitive environment through institutional guarantees. This is the concrete practice of the spirit of the Beijing Declaration. Lin Jian said that the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action are milestones in the history of women's development worldwide, and have had a positive and far-reaching impact on protecting and promoting women's rights over the past 30 years. China will take the commemoration of the 30th anniversary of the adoption of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action as an opportunity to work with the international community to inject new strong impetus into the development of the world's women's cause at a new historical starting point.
