Reflections and Resonance of Women from All Walks of Life

Caring for Migrant Women, GirlsWang Menglan, Researcher at the China Family Culture Research Association
In 2012, I conducted a survey on marriage and the family living conditions of migrant workers. The results indicated 58.2 percent of the children lived with their parents in the cities. The fact the children no longer lived apart from their parents was a sign of social progress.
I have paid special attention to the development of migrant women and children in China. In the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, both of which were adopted during the conference, the girl-child is a critical area of concern.
'Huairou Is Not a Place, but a Moment'Sun Jianqiu, a professor with the School of International Studies, University of International Business and Economics
Women make up half of the world's population and, therefore, their importance to the country and the world goes without saying. Women need a peaceful environment to play a positive role, so peace and development are what we strive for, and the themes of our time.
Twenty years later, the theme of the Fourth World Conference on Women — 'Action for Equality, Development and Peace' — is becoming increasingly significant. A mother influences a family, and a family influences society.
Deriving Satisfaction from ParticipationXiong Lei, former Vice-President of Beijing Women Journalists Association and former Executive Editor of China Features, under Xinhua News Agency
For the majority of women journalists who attended the conference in Beijing 20 years ago, including me, our satisfaction (about our careers) was derived from the experiences we had during our participation at the conference.
Quoting the findings from our survey, I noted that reports involving women amounted to less than 4 percent of the front-page coverage in the 10 newspapers. I called for greater coverage of women's and gender-equality-related issues in Chinese media.
Taking Action to Protect EnvironmentWang Mingying, Executive Vice-President of Shaanxi Volunteer Mothers' Association
I believed the association's volunteers would help raise mothers' awareness about the importance of environmental protection, and the women would teach their family members how to better protect environment.
I began organizing volunteers — including mothers, government officials and university students — to encourage women to promote environmental protection in China.
Devoted to Achieving Gender Equality, Harmony by Harnessing Men's PowerYe Wenzhen, professor at Fujian Jiangxia University
With the aim of seeking gender equality, freedom and overall development on the premise of acknowledging physiological differences and complementary aspects between men and women, Ye Wenzhen has long been committed to the pursuit of gender harmony.
I often carry out training on gender consciousness. At a discussion on how women pursue happiness, many women came to talk to me during the intervals and expressed thanks. I'm very motivated when I see them get inspiration and take delight.
