CGTN: How does China practice people-centered philosophy in human rights development?

BEIJING, May 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — When exploring a path of human rights development suited to the country’s conditions, China, under the leadership of the Communist Party of China (CPC), adheres to a people-centered approach and puts people’s interests at the forefront.

 

China has eradicated absolute poverty, laying a solid material foundation for the country’s human rights development and has built the world’s largest education, social security, and medical and healthcare systems.

Meanwhile, the country is constantly developing its whole-process people’s democracy, and improving legal frameworks to ensure legal protection of human rights, making its people the major participators, promoters and beneficiaries of the cause of human rights development.

Whether people’s sense of gain, happiness and security has been enhanced is the most important criterion to test a country’s human rights situation, said Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday, during his meeting with visiting United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet via video link.

Noting that China has successfully blazed a path of human rights development that conforms to the trend of the times and suits its national conditions, Xi said that the human rights of the Chinese people have been protected as never before. 

To jointly advance the international human rights cause and bring benefits to people of all countries, China is ready to actively engage in human rights dialogue and cooperation with other parties, on the basis of equality and mutual respect, to expand consensus and reduce differences, he said.

The priorities in human rights development

It is the greatest human right to strive to enable people to live a happy life, he said, calling for efforts to embrace a human rights philosophy that centers on people.  

The people’s interests are where the human rights cause starts and ends, he stressed. 

The people should be the real masters of their country, and become the main participants, promoters and beneficiaries of the development of human rights, he said. 

Noting that countries differ from each other in history, culture, social system and level of economic and social development, he said that they must promote and protect human rights in light of their national realities and the needs of their people.

All aspects of human rights should be advanced, he said, adding that human rights are an all-encompassing concept, and must be advanced in a comprehensive and systematic manner.

For developing countries, the rights to subsistence and development are the primary human rights, he added.

He also emphasized that global human rights governance should be advanced.

Countries should not politicize and instrumentalize human rights affairs, practice double standards or interfere in other countries’ internal affairs under the pretext of human rights, he said, adding that China will continue to support the active efforts of the United Nations in promoting the international human rights cause.

Joint efforts in global human rights cause

For her part, Bachelet said that the high commissioner’s office is ready to strengthen communication with China, explore cooperation and make joint efforts to promote progress in human rights globally.

“This is the first visit to China by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in 17 years, and I attach great importance to and cherish this visit,” she said.

She said she admired China’s efforts and achievements in poverty eradication, human rights protection and economic and social development and appreciated the country’s important role in upholding multilateralism, addressing climate change and other global challenges and promoting global sustainable development.

SOMERVILLE, N.J., Nov. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Specified Technologies Inc. has announced their latest Firestop Clash Management (FCM) and Firestop Locator (FSL) releases. FCM automates the process of locating and assigning firestop solutions to conditions within Autodesk® Revit®, enabling firestop novices to find firestop solutions like a firestop expert. In this latest release, STI has further expanded the capabilities of FCM by integrating it with their firestop documentation and compliance tool, Firestop Locator (FSL). FSL enables contractors and facilities’ teams to document the status, location, and products used for any and all fire life safety services across a building.

In the latest update for FSL, teams can now create custom items to track any service on their project beyond the base six (Penetration, Joint, Extinguisher, Door, Damper, and Barrier). Teams can also modify the base six items to include project specific inspection and maintenance requirements and any other details that they would like to be tracked.

With this new integration, decisions made during the design phase of a building using FCM are seamlessly passed into FSL during the construction phase, giving implementation teams a jump start on work to be done. This integration also improves data integrity and eliminates the guesswork in the field of determining what firestop systems and products are to be used where.

“We’re proud of the latest releases of FCM and FSL and look forward to continuing to support the fire life safety community,” says Justin Pine, Sr. Manager of Software & Services.

Specified Technologies Inc. promotes life and building safety by developing innovative fire protection systems and accompanying digital tools that help stop the spread of fire, smoke, and hot gases. Our SpecSeal® and EZ Path® product lines are engineered for easy installation and deliver powerful performance, often resulting in lower installed costs. Since firestopping is our only business, we concentrate all our resources on providing the highest quality, fully tested, innovative firestopping solutions.
