More than 50 years ago, the United Nations adopted the renowned Universal Declaration of Human Rights. And 40 years passed since the adoption by the United Nations of the International Convention on Civil and Political Rights and the International Convention on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, and we are also celebrating the 20th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration on the Right to Development. Our gathering here in Beijing, which is themed on "respecting and promoting human rights and building a harmonious world:" is therefore important. May I extend, on behalf of the China Society for Human Rights Studies, extend a warm welcome to guests, experts, scholars and other friends present on this occasion.
