I recently had the honor of participating in a United States delegation to China, part of an annual dialogue called the U.S.-China Coordination Meeting on Disability in which the two countries have been engaged for the past four years. Disability is one of the few human rights topics the Chinese are willing to meaningfully discuss with our country of late. The delegation was orchestrated by the State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, and our official host was the China Disabled Persons’ Federation (CDPF). It was a fascinating trip with a full day of formal dialogue, as well as site visits, ceremonial meals, and discussions with Chinese disability advocates.
