China – The 2022 Beijing Forum on Human Rights was recently hosted by the China Society for Human Rights Studies (CSHRS) and the China Foundation for Human Rights Development (CFHRD). About 200 senior officials, scholars, and diplomats from nearly 70 nations and international organisations, including the United Nations, attended the event and engaged in a frank and open discussion about the forum’s theme.

According to Padma Choling, president of the CSHRS and deputy chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPC), all nations should uphold the values of equality, mutual respect, tolerance, and establishing common ground while reserving differences in order to advance human rights.

The theme of this year’s forum, according to Huang Mengfu, chairman of the CFHRD, is in accordance with humanity’s shared desire to enhance and promote global human rights governance in the modern world.

Pluralism, autonomy, openness, and inclusivity should be upheld to jointly enrich the formats of human rights civilisation, according to Jiang Jianguo, executive vice president of the China Society for Human Rights Studies and vice chairman of the Committee on Ethnic and Religious Affairs of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).
