Round Table Discussion on the Abuse of Human Rights in China: Lessons Learned

About

The fourth and final session of our 2-day forum, held on the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, aims to enable more people to learn and understand about the extent and mechanisms of the human rights violations carried out by the Chinese government. We will openly discuss these human rights and medical abuses by providing a comprehensive review in a round table discussion, as well as solutions for preventing further abuse and working together to stop forced organ harvesting. We will also address that forced organ harvesting is not an isolated human rights violation but elaborate how the Chinese government has built an “industrial complex” around the forced organ harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners to conceal and hide this crime against humanity.
