18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China
The 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, held in Beijing in November 2012, was a significant political event that marked a leadership transition and set the country’s development direction. It introduced the “Chinese Dream” concept of national rejuvenation and emphasized comprehensive reforms to build a moderately prosperous society. The congress reinforced the Party’s guiding ideologies and outlined key policies for China’s economic, political, and social advancement.
Global Women’s Summit
The Global Women’s Summit is a major international conference dedicated to advancing gender equality and women’s empowerment. It brings together leaders, activists, and professionals from around the world to discuss critical issues, share strategies, and build networks. While the specific history varies by organizer, these summits have evolved over recent decades as a key platform for driving the global women’s rights movement forward.
