The Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has developed a satellite for pursuing sustainable development. The satellite, SDGSAT-1, has already passed the round-the-clock and multi-load coordinated observation. It is expected to provide advanced, open and shared data resources for monitoring and evaluating the sustainable development index representing the interaction between human and nature.
In July, the All-China Women's Federation, together with the Ministry of Science and Technology and 11 other government bodies, launched a series of measures to help female researchers play a greater role in scientific and technological innovation. As China ramps up its efforts to help develop female talent, countless women are shining in various fields of science and technology.
