Women's Rights in China: Chinese Child Bride Estimates

Currently we are working on five project areas:

-Rural Girls Assistance

- WRIC aims to develop assistance and educational programs for girls in Mainland China’s poor rural areas. In addition, the Rural Girls Assistance Project gave a one-time 20 dollars assistance to every expectant mother with 5 to 9 month pregnancies.The project was designed to combat gender discrimination in China, to fight for girl babies’ equal rights to survive, to give encouragement to mothers of girls, in order to strengthen the confidence of mother and daughter, to enable young girls to grow up in both mental and physical health.

-Child Brides

- WRIC helps to raise awareness and reunite child brides to their families through DNA testing and conferences.

-Anti Kidnapping

- Since 2008, WRIC started to spread awareness about missing children. In 2010, Huijiawang (branch of WRIC) organized the First Chinese Citizens’ Anti-Trafficking Discussion and Conference. In addition, WRIC exhibits hundreds of photographs of missing children in China and in New York.

-Orphans

- WRIC helps to support orphans in China, in particular the abandonment of female infants.

-Forced Abortions

- We help women who have undergone forced abortions due to the One Child Policy. In addition, we raise awareness about the severity of the issue.
