　　前言

　　残疾人是人类大家庭的平等成员。尊重和保障残疾人的人权和人格尊严，使他们能以平等的地位和均等的机会充分参与社会生活，共享物质文明和精神文明成果，是国家义不容辞的责任，也是中国特色社会主义制度的必然要求。

　　中国有8500万残疾人。新中国成立70年来，在建设中国特色社会主义伟大事业进程中，中国共产党和中国政府本着对人民负责的精神，坚持以人民为中心，关心特殊困难群体，尊重残疾人意愿，保障残疾人权利，注重残疾人的社会参与，推动残疾人真正成为权利主体，成为经济社会发展的参与者、贡献者和享有者。

　　Preamble

　　Persons with disabilities are equal members of the human family. It is a bounden duty of the state and an essential requirement of socialism with Chinese characteristics to respect and protect their human rights and dignity, and to offer them equal opportunities to participate in social life and enjoy the fruits of the country’s material and cultural progress on an equal footing.

　　China now has a population of 85 million persons with disabilities. Over the 70 years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 1949, and especially in the process of building socialism with Chinese characteristics, the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Chinese government have always put the people first and provided care for the group with special difficulties. China respects the wishes of those with disabilities, protects their rights, attaches importance to their participation in social life, grants them real civil rights, and makes them participants in, contributors to, and beneficiaries of our social and economic development.
