CWU Teachers Conduct Social Research to Promote Long March Spirit

The Department of Ideological and Political Theory of China Women's University (CWU) organized some teachers to conduct social research in Xiaojin, Songpan and Wenchuan counties in Southwest China's Sichuan Province from July 21 to 29.

With a theme of Studying the Party's History, Strengthening Faith and Following the Party's Leadership, the activity organized the participants to retrace the route of Long March to understand the hardships experienced by the Red Army soldiers and conduct social research along the way.

During the research, the teachers also collected historical materials that were not shown in textbooks, which helped them accumulate precious materials for the new semester to carry out the Party history education.

The CWU has actively implemented the spirit of the important speech delivered by General Secretary Xi Jinping at a symposium for teachers of ideological and political theory in March 2019, and has set up special funds for ideological and political teachers to encourage them to conduct field research at the grassroots level during winter and summer vacations.

As college educators and Party members, the teachers vowed to carry forward the Long March spirit in their work, strengthen their faith, promote the reform and innovation of ideological and political teaching methods and make the Long March spirit an important part of the spiritual pursuits of young people.
