Nation puts women's issues in focus
"China is not without challenges in women's and children's development," Li Ying said, adding that the way in which the nation strengthens its support for rural women after their husbands become migrant workers in urban areas can also inspire other countries.
Kaniwa, from Zimbabwe, who traveled extensively in China while pursuing her postgraduate degree at China Women's University from 2016 to 2018, said studying in the nation was "a rich academic and cultural experience" that helped her prepare for the next phase of her life.
She said the experience enhanced her critical thinking on ways to promote women's development, adding that she is proud to be a role model for them in the rural community of Mutoko, her hometown.
"I now feel empowered to help disadvantaged women in my community resolve challenges they face, especially those related to gender disparity in obtaining opportunities offered by community projects," she said.
