The 2025 China-South Africa Seminar on Human Rights was held on Thursday in Pretoria, South Africa's administrative capital. Under the theme "Multilateralism and the Realization of the Right to Development," the event gathered around 50 representatives from both countries to discuss topics, including four major global initiatives proposed by China and global human rights governance, and China-South Africa practical cooperation and the advancement of the right to development. Participants widely agreed that China and South Africa share a high degree of alignment in upholding multilateralism and promoting common development. As key members of the Global South, the two countries hold similar views on human rights issues. Experts emphasized that the two sides must further deepen exchanges on human rights topics and jointly implement the four global initiatives, contributing to a more just and equitable global human rights governance system. The seminar was co-hosted by the China Foundation for Human Rights Development and the Center for Africa-China Studies at the University of Johannesburg. More than 50 experts, scholars, and representatives from social organizations, think tanks, businesses, and media outlets from both countries attended the event.
