On March 11, 2009, the Conscience Foundation (www.consciencefoundation.org) held a forum at the United Nations in Geneva to convene the groups that are victim to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution. Over 100 delegates and NGO representatives attended.

This year represents the 60th anniversary of the CCP’s tyranny in China, the 50th year since the suppression of the Tibetan uprising, the 30th year since the suppression of the “XiDan democratic wall,” the 20th anniversary of the June 4 Tiananmen Square Massacre, and the 10th anniversary of the persecution of Falun Gong. These anniversaries remind the world that the CCP has not only committed the most severe violations of human rights in history, but has also conducted the longest persecution.

The deterioration of human rights in China is the result of the CCP’s rule. However, international society has also played a role in that it has ignored or even been complicit in China’s severe human rights violations in the interest of financial gain. On March 11, 2009, in order to further expose the CCP’s violations of human rights, to arouse the conscience of international society and to integrate global action, the Conscience Foundation, with the support of Interfaith International, held a forum in Geneva about China’s Human Rights, involving the many human rights groups from around the world that attended the 10th U.N. Human Rights Council session.
