The cause of women and children has a bearing on the harmony and social stability of hundreds of millions of families, and is a "family affair" and, more importantly, a "national affair". On April 16, the Supreme People's Court, together with the All-China Women's Federation, held an open day for the protection of the rights and interests of women and children with the theme of "Respecting Women, Caring for Children, Actively Performing Duties, and Protecting the Advancement of the Law", inviting deputies to the National People's Congress, members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and representatives of members of the All-China Women's Federation to visit and discuss. Zhang Jun, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and President of the Supreme People's Court, Huang Xiaowei, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group, Vice Chairman and First Secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Women's Federation, and Deputy Director of the Working Committee on Women and Children of the State Council attended the event and delivered speeches.

Deng Xiuming, deputy secretary of the party group of the Supreme People's Court and vice president in charge of daily work, presided over the launching ceremony of the event and reported on the work carried out by the people's courts in recent years to protect the rights and interests of women and children. The participants visited the exhibition on the protection of the rights and interests of women and children, and watched a short film on family trial work based on real cases and a simulated trial drama on popularizing the law. Judges Wang Dan and Zhao Junfu of the First Civil Division of the Supreme People's Court introduced the reform of the people's courts' family trials, the work of criminal trials for the protection of minors, and typical cases of the protection of the rights and interests of women and children.

"Juvenile trials are an extremely special area of court work, which may seem simple but is not simple. As a juvenile judge, I will continue to improve the level of trial practice, and continue to work hard in sociology, education, psychology, etc., to make my own contribution to helping lost children return to the right path. "In recent years, the Supreme People's Court and the All-China Women's Federation have jointly established a working mechanism to protect the rights and interests of women and children, and have jointly released several batches of typical cases, which have achieved solid results.

"I will continue to put forward more high-quality proposals and suggestions on the protection of the rights and interests of women and children, reflect the voice and public opinion, and promote the high-quality development of women and children. "The protection of the rights and interests of women and children is relatively weak in rural areas, and it is recommended that the courts organize more legal popularization and publicity for rural areas and farmers. "Anti-domestic violence is the common responsibility of the whole society, and the 'court + women's federation' has played a positive role in jointly defending rights, and I hope that more units will participate in protecting women and children." "I hope that the courts will use more typical cases to lead public awareness, so that respect for women and care for children will become a common practice in the whole society." "I was very touched to see the letter written by the children who have returned to society and have achieved success in their studies to the 'judge's mother', and I deeply feel the court's sincerity and sincerity for the protection of the rights and interests of women and children. ”...... During the discussion and exchange, deputies to the National People's Congress Chen Haiyi, Fang Yan, Zhao Lixin and Ruan Xiangyan, and members of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference Wang Fang and Meng Yan talked about their feelings and put forward suggestions on the people's courts' work to protect the rights and interests of women and children.

"The responsibilities of the people's courts and women's federations are the same, and they are all under the leadership of the party to implement the people-centered development thinking. Zhang Jun said that to study and implement well General Secretary Xi Jinping's important expositions on doing a good job in the work of women and children, promoting the development of women and children, and doing a good job in the cause of women and children is to take a clear stand on politics, and it is also the unshirkable responsibility and mission of the people's courts as national judicial organs. In view of the new situation and new problems faced by efforts to protect the rights and interests of women and children, it is necessary to address the problem of juvenile delinquency, and do a good job of treating both the symptoms and the root causes, and punishing and preventing them at the same time, so that trials can become both a "public court" for punishment and punishment of delinquent juveniles, and also a "classroom" for rescue education. In response to issues that impact the healthy growth of minors, it is necessary to do a solid job of grasping the front end and treating the disease before it happens, and use judicial protection to promote coordinated efforts to promote family protection, school protection, social protection, online protection, and government protection, to jointly protect the healthy growth of minors. In the course of handling cases involving minors, pay attention to the protection of civil and administrative rights and interests, the prevention and punishment of criminal offenses, and the preservation of the public interest, and so forth, to ensure the principle of "maximizing the interests of minors". In response to changes in cases of marriage and family disputes, it is necessary to ensure that the rule of law guides and regulates, and in efforts such as lawfully protecting the lawful rights and interests of women in the family, combating female employment discrimination, and countering domestic violence, we should always adhere to the position of ensuring women's "fair rights, fair opportunities, and fair rules", and carry forward good social customs. "The key is to do a good job of 'nine-point implementation' for a long time, continue to give full play to the advantages of the family trial system, strengthen the construction of specialization, promote coordination and linkage, and actively perform duties to achieve a win-win, multi-win, and win-win situation, and create a better rule of law and social environment for women's development and children's growth. ”

Protecting the legitimate rights and interests of women and children is the common responsibility of the whole society. Huang Xiaowei said that in recent years, the All-China Women's Federation and the Supreme People's Court have thoroughly implemented Xi Jinping Thought on the Rule of Law, General Secretary Xi Jinping's important expositions on the work of women, children and women's federations, and important expositions on paying attention to the construction of family education and family style. Fruitful results have been achieved in the prevention and crackdown on violations and crimes against women and children, which have played a positive role in weaving a dense network for the protection of the rights and interests of women and children and promoting social harmony and stability. In the next step, we will continue to build and make good use of the working mechanism of "courts + women's federations", give full play to their respective functional advantages, widely gather resources and forces from all parties, and implement special actions such as women's rights protection and warmth, and caring mothers in pairs, so as to make rights protection and care services usual, regular, and at the grassroots level, and jointly promote the resolution of key and difficult issues in the rights and interests of women and children, escort the good life of women, children and families, and make new contributions to the construction of a rule of law in China.

He Xiaorong, member of the party group and vice president of the Supreme People's Court, Ma Liejian, secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Women's Federation and member of the party group, and Na Yanfang, secretary of the Secretariat of the All-China Women's Federation, attended the open day.

On the same day, in accordance with the unified arrangements of the Supreme People's Court, the four levels of courts across the country organized and carried out the "Special Open Day for the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Women and Children" in light of actual work conditions and local conditions, and worked with the Women's Federation and other units to jointly make the judicial protection of women and children deeper, more detailed, and more practical.
