尊重和保障人权，是中国宪法规定的基本原则，并在中国的各项法律制度和中国政府开展的各项工作中得到充分体现。新疆开展教培工作，是政府依法采取的一项社会治理措施，旨在保障人民生命安全，保障公民基本权利不受侵犯。在开展教培工作过程中，教培中心严格贯彻落实宪法和法律规定，保障参与培训学员的基本权利不受侵犯。

　　教培工作根本不是什么限制、剥夺人身自由的措施，而是依法采取的帮助学员摆脱恐怖主义、宗教极端主义束缚的重要措施，是实现人的思想解放、素质提升和更好发展之举。

　　It is a basic principle, enshrined in the Constitution of China, prescribed by its laws, and demonstrated by the efforts of the Chinese government, to respect and protect human rights. The education and training in Xinjiang is a social governance measure taken by the government, in accordance with the law, to protect the lives and basic civil rights of citizens. In organizing the training programs, the education and training centers strictly follow the provisions of the Constitution and the law to prevent any violation of the basic rights of trainees.

　　Education and training is not a measure to limit or circumscribe the freedom of the person. Rather it is an important measure to help trainees to break free from ideas of terrorism and religious extremism. It is an attempt to help the trainees to emancipate their minds, improve themselves and their future prospects.

　　中国法律明文禁止任何基于地域、民族、宗教等理由的歧视性做法，这一规定在新疆得到了切实执行。教培中心确定教育挽救对象的唯一标准是是否有过恐怖主义、宗教极端主义违法或犯罪行为，与其所在的地区、所属的民族和所信仰的宗教毫无关系。

　　学员在教培中心学习过程中的人身自由得到依法保障。教培中心充分保障学员的人格尊严不受侵犯，严禁以任何方式对学员进行人格侮辱和虐待。教培中心实行寄宿制管理，学员可定期回家，有事请假，学员有通信自由。

　  The law of China prohibits any discrimination based on region, ethnicity, religion and other grounds. This is implemented strictly in Xinjiang. The only criterion for education at the centers is whether the trainee has been convicted of unlawful or criminal acts involving terrorism and religious extremism. It has nothing to do with their region, ethnicity or religion.

　　The personal freedom of trainees at the education and training centers is protected in accordance with the law. The centers guarantee that trainees’ personal dignity is inviolable, and prevent any insult or abuse in any manner. They employ a residential education model which allows trainees to go back home on a regular basis and ask for leave to attend personal affairs. The trainees also enjoy the freedom of correspondence.

　　在教培中心，各民族的风俗习惯和使用本民族语言文字的权利都得到充分保障。教培中心各项规章制度、课程表、食谱等均使用国家通用语言文字和当地少数民族语言文字。教培中心充分尊重和保障不同民族学员的风俗习惯，免费提供种类繁多、营养丰富的清真饮食。

　　教培中心尊重学员的宗教信仰自由。《宗教事务条例》规定，禁止在宗教院校以外的学校及其他教育机构传教、举行宗教活动、成立宗教组织、设立宗教活动场所。教培中心在管理上实行教育与宗教相分离，学员不得在校内组织、参加宗教活动，但信教学员回家时可以自主决定是否参与合法宗教活动。

　　The customs of all ethnic groups and the right to use their spoken and written languages are fully protected at the centers. The regulations, curriculum, and menus at the centers all use local ethnic languages as well as standard Chinese. The customs of all ethnic groups are fully respected and protected, and a variety of nutritious Muslim food is provided free of charge.

　　The education and training centers respect the trainees’ freedom of religious belief. The Regulations on Religious Affairs prohibit preaching religion, holding religious activities, establishing religious organizations, and setting up religious activity sites in schools and educational institutions other than religious institutions. The centers practice separation of education and religion in management, which means trainees should not organize or take part in religious activities there, but they can decide on their own whether to do so on a legal basis when they get home.

　　教培中心配备双语教师、辅导员、医生和后勤服务管理人员等，保障学员正常学习生活。教培中心生活设施齐全，室内冬天有暖气、夏天有空调或风扇，宿舍有电视，浴室免费对学员开放。设置医疗室，每天24小时免费向学员提供医疗服务，小病可在医务室就诊治疗，重症急症可快速送医院救治。

　　The education and training centers employ bilingual teachers, instructors, doctors and logistics and managerial staff to ensure that the trainees can study and lead a normal life. They have well-equipped facilities – central heating in winter, air conditioners and electric fans in summer, TVs in the dormitory, and bathrooms. They also have free 24-hour medical facilities available to trainees, capable of treating minor ailments. In the case of major and acute illnesses, trainees will be sent to hospital.
