Campaigns and projects raising women's role in poverty alleviation, rural revitalization, entrepreneurship and innovation and civilization launched by the All-China Women's Federation will be further promoted to unite and mobilize women and enable them to make contributions in the New Era.

CPPCC National Committee member Huang Xiaowei, vice-president and first member of the Secretariat of the All-China Women's Federation, made those remarks when she joined a panel discussion for deliberating the Government Work Report during the second session of the 13th CPPCC National Committee in Beijing on March 6.

Over the past year, China's economic and social development has made new and significant progress, thanks to the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core and the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. The progress shows the great power of the socialist path, theory, system and culture with Chinese characteristics to the world, Huang stated.

She said the Government Work Report delivered by Premier Li Keqiang is "pragmatic and inspiring" and that she fully agrees with and supports it.

Huang said the report demonstrates the people-oriented principle and presents a package of policies concerning people's livelihoods.

It contains many references to the employment of women, children, families and women's federations, which reflect the great importance to the cause of women and children in the eyes of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi at its core, Huang noted.

She said the report "made us extremely warm and heartened."

The women's federations will carry out the tasks assigned by the CPC Central Committee and implement the state policy of gender equality, striving to tackle the key problems involving women and children's development and rights protection.

In addition, Huang made suggestions on promoting family education and family traditions, and care services for children under 3 years of age.
