The All-China Women's Federation (ACWF) launched a national education campaign in Beijing on August 26, to carry forward the patriotic spirit among women, children and families. 

The campaign included telling Chinese women's anti-epidemic stories, unveiling women's patriotism education bases and promoting book-reading among teenagers. 

Women fighting on the frontline of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on various positions were invited to share their anti-epidemic experiences of overcoming difficulties and risks day and night.

During the launch event, an autographed medical protective suit was handed over to the China National Museum on Women and Children. The signatures on the suit come from 20 national-level female role model medical workers, who were honored ahead of International Women's Day.

Meanwhile, the museum and four revolutionary sites, established in memory of heroines including Zhao Yiman, Liu Hulan, Li Lin and eight other female martyrs, were unveiled as national women's patriotism education bases, to mark the 75th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-1945) and the World Anti-Fascist War.

The 28th National Teenagers' Reading and Education Campaign, which aims to help in the development of an all-round well-off society, was initiated during the event. Since its inception in 1993, a total of 800 million teenagers across the country have participated in the reading activity.

The museum also received copies of the designated books in previous activities at the event.
