"I am a docent at the National Museum of Chinese Writing, in Anyang, a city in Central China's Henan Province. Museums play an important part in the education of children and teenagers in traditional Chinese culture. As a delegate to the 13th National Women's Congress of China, I shoulder a glorious mission, and a great responsibility. I focus on fostering stronger family ties, values and traditions, and on promoting traditional culture, when I guide visitors and organize activities in the museum. I will inherit and promote China's fine traditional culture, and I will better tell the stories of Chinese culture," Yang Xiaoyu said, during an interview with Women of China.
The National Museum of Chinese Writing plays an important role in promoting traditional Chinese culture, especially the oracle bone inscriptions, which have more than 3,000 years of history. Oracle bone inscriptions, an ancient form of Chinese characters engraved on turtle shells and ox scapulae, were excavated from the Yin ruins in Anyang City.
More than 90 percent of the museum's docents are women. Yang and her team have given public-benefit lectures on Chinese characters to teenagers, during weekends and holidays. In recent years, the team has developed more than 160 educational projects involving Chinese characters, and the team has organized more than 1,500 activities. More than 50,000 families have participated in the activities.
Yang and her team also launched a program — giving lectures on oracle bone inscriptions — aimed at students in remote, mountainous areas and revolutionary base areas. More than 20,000 students, in 16 schools in the rural areas of Yunnan Province and Xinjiang Uygur and Guangxi Zhuang autonomous regions, have benefited from the lectures.
The museum is a demonstration base of family traditions and education in Henan Province. Women, from all walks of life, bring their children to the museum, to view the exhibits.
"In the future, I will continue to fulfill my duties of inheriting, and promoting the creative transformation, of traditional Chinese culture. I will boost the role of the museum in promoting traditional culture to more people," says Yang.
