How to do ethnic work at the grassroots level? Municipal Political Consultative Conference and Ethnic Affairs Committee carry out vertical linkage consultation, research and education | Municipal Political Consultative Conference | Ethnic Affairs Committee
What is the current situation of ethnic population mobility, integration, and development? What changes have occurred in the spatial distribution pattern? What are the new situations and problems faced by the migration and integration of ethnic populations in mega cities? On June 28th, Professor Gao Xiangdong, a member of the 13th Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the chief expert of the "Research Base for Strengthening the Awareness of the Chinese National Community", brought a thematic education lecture to more than 70 grassroots ethnic and religious work cadres from Hongkou, Putuo, and Minhang districts.
It is reported that this report meeting integrates the joint research results of the Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, the United Front Work Department of the Hongkou District Committee, the United Front Work Department of the Putuo District Committee, the United Front Work Department of the Minhang District Committee, and the Overseas Chinese Religious Work Committee of the Standing Committee of the District People's Congress. According to the requirements of the Central Theme Education Office and the Leading Group for Theme Education of the Municipal Party Committee, Qian Feng, Vice Chairman of the Municipal Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, led a research project titled "The Practice and Implementation of Strengthening the Awareness of the Chinese National Community in Shanghai - Research on the Role of Grassroots Ethnic Unions in Shanghai Communities", and conducted vertical linkage work on research topics with relevant departments in Hongkou District, Putuo District, and Minhang District.
In early June of this year, the Municipal Association of the People's Political Consultative Conference visited relevant departments in three districts on site, and supplemented them with online, offline, written, face-to-face and other methods to exchange relevant content on the topic and gather questions. With the collaboration of all parties, a phased achievement of vertical linkage has been released recently. Among them, providing intellectual support for frontline ethnic workers at the grassroots level, conducting special training on ethnic minority work, and improving the quality and level of ethnic minority work have become urgent "key demands" that need to be addressed. The Municipal Association of Ethnic and Religious Affairs subsequently took the initiative to bridge the gap and invite experts and professors for grassroots ethnic workers. Through data charts, research results, policy interpretations, and other means, they helped grassroots ethnic workers solve frontline problems and support recruitment.
It is reported that in the next step, the Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China will continue to conscientiously implement the work arrangements and time requirements of the Central Theme Education Office and the Municipal Party Committee Theme Education Leading Group, conduct in-depth centralized and group research, fully leverage the role of committee members, and continuously deepen and implement the theme education research work.
