Optimize environment for human rights development

Luo Haocai, president of China Society for Human Rights Studies

In September, a golden season in China, we are happily gathered together in Beijing to hold the annual Beijing Forum on Human Rights, discussing experiences and achievements in human rights and planning together human rights development.

This session of the Forum is themed "Constructing an Environment for Sustainable Human Rights Development". Human rights are not isolated; rather, they are human rights situated in society, the network interwoven with economy, politics, society, culture and so on, and human rights protection has to depend upon certain interior and exterior environments and institutional arrangement.
