Weinan WU

Weinan born in a small village belong to Changde city of Hunan province. And he graduated from Qingdao University in 2011 majoring in Social Work.

From Feb 2011 to Jul 2012, worked as a social worker in school in Shenzhen, and became one of the first groups of Free Lunch for Children Foundation volunteers, participated in building the volunteer team in Shenzhen, and organized a series of related activities. From Jul 2012 till now, work in China Rural Kids Care Foundation set up for village children; strive for fair medical opportunities and rights for village children.

With ordinary laborers working under low security and low welfare, China maintained a high speed economic development in the past 30 years, which will eventually not be sustainable. Regardless of unequal distribution of wealth, a social welfare movement is needed urgently. I believe this will be a turning point for China's social reform. With media's pushing forward, every citizen can play a more active and important role. The moment we voice our needs, the moment we take actions, changes happen accordingly. Actions change China. Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Tong ZHOU

I have devoted into NGO once after graduation and builds Charity Shop in China together with a lovely team.

During one-year work, I have learnt a lot from working together with Disabled employees, including treating every different people from a strength perspective, dealing with a social problem in a more innovated way, and solving every question down to earth.

Also, I have realized that each person’s advantage and disadvantage is relative. If one day the whole world is full of darkness, the blind and visually impaired people

will have more survival advantages than any others.

“Try to understand them, help them bring their advantages into play, and let everyone enjoy the rights.”

“Hope one day our experiences of helping people with disabilities in China can let everyone agree our views that: Everyone has value.”

Though born and raised in Wuhan, this is my eighth year in the United States. I spent my undergraduate years in a small town in Central Pennsylvania. After being selected as a Change Leader with Oxfam America, I was deeply involved with various local community development initiatives. Undergraduate studies also sparkled my interest in environmental and natural resource economics, which led me to an opportunity to observe international climate change policy-making in action at the United Nations. The experience at the UN confirmed my interest in environment and energy

related issues, but also exposed my lack of technical knowledge of the field, which inspired me to pursue a graduate degree in energy and environment. I currently work at an energy/environment consulting firm in Washington, DC.I have been a blogger since coming to the States. While the initial intent was to keep in touch with friends through written words, I have soon discovered that writing has become a necessary step for me to think critically. I have been closely following the grassroots movement in China as a result of demanding environmental justice for citizens, and I sincerely hope I can be part of it in a constructive way.

Ziyi QIN

Abigail Ziyi Qin is an undergraduate law school student studying in Beijing. With the strong uncertainty of where she belongs to, due to all the cities and cultures she has got through during her life, she might have a more complicated and bittersweet concern about what "China" is and who people are inside this entity. Impressed by the scholars' attempts for academic pursuit, she is considering about bringing intelligence, knowledge and the rationality gained from university into social actions. Now, she is looking forward to the construction of well-interactive communities where people can realize "empowerment" and make better lives for

themselves. Also, she believes that China is now in lack of a common ground to begin every discussion and recently, Chinese women (especial the young)'s awkward gesture in the seams of men's social domination has puzzled her a lot.
