We offered suggestions on the promotion of rural revitalization and the
development of tracing systems for guaranteeing the safety and quality of
agricultural products. We hosted online consultations on ensuring rural roads are
well built, managed, maintained, and operated, and promoted the introduction of
documents on these topics.

The Standing Committee held a special consultative meeting on providing
education that meets people’s needs. We also called a consultative meeting on
improving basic public cultural services in rural areas. The outcomes of these

meetings were considered and adopted by relevant departments.
We conducted research and consultations on issues such as the promotion of
family ties, values and traditions, the training of pre-school teachers, the growth of
private schools, the development of calligraphy as a branch of learning, and the

development of the Grand Canal cultural belt, as well as ways to keep alive and
develop traditional Chinese dramas and operas, and to promote high-quality
development of the film industry. We arranged special inspection tours regarding

the training of teachers working in extremely impoverished rural areas, the
protection of Long March relics, the development of tourism related to the early
history of the CPC, and the cultural development of the Yongding River basin.
We engaged in consultations on policy measures to create jobs, on

implementing the Healthy China initiative, on promoting traditional Chinese
medicine, on improving public healthcare services at the community level, and on
strengthening elderly care services. We arranged visits to teachers on Teachers’

Day and the participation of our members in community-level events related to
science and technology, culture, healthcare, and sports.
In our efforts to promote the law-based governance of China, we engaged in
consultations and offered suggestions on improving the work of public interest

litigation by procuratorates, revising the Copyright Law, and protecting
intellectual property rights in cyberspace and personal information in the era of big
data. We also carried out surveys to oversee the enforcement of the Law on the
