ABSTRACT

The National Conference on Propaganda Work in Family Planning, held in Beijing from November 1-6, 1982, was

sponsored by the the Propaganda Department of the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee and the National

Family Planning Committee. Among the 136 participants were representatives from various provincial, city, and

autonomous region propaganda and family planning units, the General Political Department of the People's

Liberation Army, general trade unions, All China Women's Federation, Communist Youth League, and propaganda

reporters. The purpose of the conference was to discuss how to organize family planning propaganda in meeting

China's goal of limiting the population to 1,200,000,000 by 2000, and how to arrange a Family Planning Propaganda

Month for early 1983. The Chairman of the National Family Planning Committee made 3 points: family planning is a

basic national policy, greater propaganda efforts must be made towards peasant family planning, and everyone must

work hard to create a new situation in family planning work. The Vice Minister of the Propaganda Department

remarked that family planning propaganda was foremost among the 12 national propaganda topics; these sentiments

were supported totally by the representatives of the women and youth groups. The Vice Chairman of the Advisory

Committee of the Central Committee said that family planning work was longterm, and that its success lay in the

countryside. Finally, the Vice Chairman of the National Family Planning Committee encouraged all delegates to take

the spirit of the conference back to their home. During the conference delegates also met to discuss important

points in planning the Family Planning Propaganda Month. (PubHealth.info Document ID: CONT5T 2007-06)
