China to host women's rights conference in 2025

scmp.com

China will host a new women's rights conference in 2025, 30 years after the last major event in Beijing. This conference aims to address women's rights as human rights, reflecting a shift in focus from the previous U.S.-led feminist agenda. In 1995, the U.S. played a significant role in promoting women's rights at the conference, with strong support from American NGOs. The event highlighted global issues faced by women, fostering a sense of unity among diverse cultures. The upcoming conference may allow China to position itself as a leader in women's rights, contrasting with perceived setbacks in the U.S. This development raises questions about the evolving landscape of women's rights advocacy worldwide.
