在敏感和脫敏之間前行：中國民間推進婦女人權20 年

20 Years Promoting Women’s Human Rights in China

「婦女的權利是人權」，1995年在北京召開的聯合國第四次世界婦女大會以來這個口號在中國傳播開來。加上這次世婦會使得非政府組織的概念在中國得到承認甚至一定程度的鼓勵，由此婦女中間始終存在的結社衝動得以釋放，並以NGO為依託，更加自覺地促進政府履行職責。在這個背景下，一場自下而上倡導婦女人權的行動拉開了大幕。從親歷者的角度，本文擷取建立婦女／女權主義組織、推動法律改革和運用國際公約機制三個側面，回顧這場行動，並指出前行所面臨的國際國內情形更加複雜。

“Women’s rights are human rights” was heard and spread in China around 1995 at the time of the World Conference on Women of the UN in Beijing. In addition, NGOs were beginning to be accepted then and won some form of encouragement. Thus, an impetus for women to associate and hold the state accountable grew. Against this background, bottom-up activism promoting women’s human rights came of age in three stages. As a witness and participant, the author presents three features of this movement: the setting-up of women’s/feminist groups, a push for law reform, as well as the use of the international human rights conventions. She reflects on this experience, and reveals the complexity facing future developments.
