The Sixth Beijing Forum on Human Rights was held in the Chinese capital on September 12-13, with the theme being the building of a sustainable environment for human rights development.

The forum was co-organized by the China Society for Human Rights Studies, the largest human rights academic group in China, and the China Foundation for Human Rights Development, a major civil group. It discussed ties between human rights and the rule of law, social development, as well as regional security.

The annual event was first held in 2008 and has grown to be a key platform for human rights exchange internationally.
