<p>During the UK-China ‘People-to-People’ Dialogue in December 2016, my Rt Hon. Friends
the Secretaries of State for Health (Mr Hunt) and Education (Ms Greening) discussed
gender equality, women’s empowerment, and female education and employment rights with
Chinese ministerial counterparts. Women’s empowerment will continue to be a key theme
for this year’s ‘People to People’ Dialogue. Our Ambassador in Beijing, Dame Barbara
Woodward, is a patron of ‘Inspiring Women China’, and launched a series of events
in schools across China in March this year. Planned UK projects in China have girls’
empowerment as a key outcome.</p>
