Peng Liyuan attends the 2025 UNESCO Girls' and Women's Education Award Ceremony and 10th Anniversary Celebration of the Establishment of the Award.

On the afternoon of September 19, 2025, the UNESCO Girls' and Women's Education Award Ceremony and the 10th Anniversary Celebration of the establishment of the award were held in Beijing. Chinese President Xi Jinping's wife, UNESCO Special Envoy for the Promotion of Girls' and Women's Education Peng Liyuan, and UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay attended and delivered speeches. Peng Liyuan stated that this year marks the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the UNESCO Girls' and Women's Education Award. Over the past 10 years, winners from various countries and experts from all walks of life have helped girls and women adapt to social development changes and achieve their own development through education. The concept of empowering women through education is increasingly ingrained in people's hearts, allowing millions of girls and women to have the confidence and ability to choose their own paths and pursue their dreams. This is the significance of the Girls' and Women's Education Award. Currently, human society is entering the era of intelligence. In this process, we must prioritize women's scientific education, help more women grasp scientific knowledge, learn to use new technologies, enhance innovation capabilities, and strive to enable women to embrace the technological revolution and create wonderful lives. China has always attached great importance to the development of women's scientific education and looks forward to deepening cooperation with UNESCO and relevant parties, comprehensively strengthening the capacity building of women's scientific education, and jointly improving the level of women's scientific education.
