To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the All-China Women's Federation (ACWF) initiated a nation-wide publicity and education campaign for children in Beijing on March 29.

The campaign, themed with "Always Following the Party," was jointly organized by the China Children and Teenagers' Fund (CCTF), the National Museum of China, China Arts and Entertainment Group, CCTV-1, Beijing No. 35 High School, the Yujie Cultural Foundation in Sichuan Province, and the China Association for Promoting Children's Culture and Art.

To implement the fundamental task of fostering virtue through education, the campaign aims to guide children and teenagers to learn the century-old glorious history of the CPC and understand Chinese culture and the Chinese path, to boost their love for the Party and their patriotism, and to encourage them to become all-rounded socialist builders and successors.

Relevant publicity and education activities, including patriotic song choruses, trips to revolutionary bases, story-sharing, and speech and composition competitions will be held to help children and teenagers deepen their comprehension of Party history.

The campaign is set to run throughout the year. Excellent works, including photos, articles and videos, will be solicited and displayed online.
