Give priority to the development of education and build a strong country with human resources.
Zhao, Vice Minister of Education
The 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put "giving priority to developing education and building a powerful country with human resources" at the top of six social construction tasks focusing on improving people's livelihood. We understand that there are three meanings here: first, it is clear that the direct purpose of education is to improve the comprehensive quality of all members of society, so as to build China into a powerful country in human resources; Second, it highlights the basic position of education in social construction and then in modernization, making the meaning of priority development of education more clear; The third is to emphasize the public welfare nature of education, and increase investment mainly by the government.
At present and in the future, the education system should closely focus on the new requirements of building a well-off society in an all-round way and implement a series of major principles and policies on education put forward by the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. To sum up, first, give priority to the development of education, focus on grasping the law of education development, innovate the concept of education development, change the mode of education development, solve the problems of education development, and improve the quality and efficiency of education development.
Second, fully implement the Party's education policy, fully implement quality education, adhere to the principle of educating people and putting moral education first, regard moral education as the fundamental task of education, integrate the socialist core value system into the whole process of national education and spiritual civilization construction, and strive to cultivate socialist builders and successors with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physique and beauty.
The third is to further optimize the educational structure, promote the balanced development of compulsory education, accelerate the popularization of high school education, vigorously develop vocational education, improve the quality of higher education, and promote the coordinated development of all levels and types of education.
Fourth, we must adhere to the public welfare of education, promote education equity, and further improve the student financial aid system so that all poor students can afford to go to college and receive vocational education.
Fifth, we should attach great importance to and earnestly strengthen the construction of teachers, take effective measures to safeguard teachers' political, social and professional status, safeguard their legitimate rights and interests, and form a good social atmosphere of respecting teachers and attaching importance to teaching.
Sixth, we will continue to promote education reform and opening up, and promote the improvement of Socialism with Chinese characteristics's modern school-running system and mechanism that is full of vitality, more open and conducive to scientific development.
Improving the efficiency of innovation system and realizing leap-forward development
Li Jinghai, Vice President of China Academy of Sciences
General Secretary Hu Jintao put science, technology and education in a very prominent position in the report of the 17th National Congress. We scientists and technicians are deeply encouraged and feel a great responsibility. Under the guidance of the spirit of the 17th National Congress, the scientific and technological circles should more consciously turn the spirit of the 17th National Congress into the driving force and practical action to promote independent innovation in science and technology.
It is an arduous task to realize the dual goals of quadrupling the per capita GDP in 2020 compared with 2000 proposed by the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and forming an industrial structure that saves energy and protects the ecological environment. This not only puts forward new requirements for the development of science and technology itself, but also puts forward higher requirements for the development speed of science and technology and its supporting role in economy and society.
China Academy of Sciences is a strategic scientific and technological force of the country, shouldering the sacred mission of making fundamental, strategic and forward-looking major scientific and technological innovations for China's economic construction, social development and national security. In order to meet the energy demand of China's future sustainable economic and social development, we must vigorously develop energy saving, clean coal technology and renewable energy technology, improve energy efficiency, promote the development of nuclear energy and other new energy sources, and build a sustainable energy system.
In recent years, the investment of China government and enterprises in science and technology has increased rapidly, but compared with developed countries, there are still many gaps in the total amount and intensity of investment, and it is difficult to reach the level of developed countries in a short time. In the case of relatively little investment, to realize the leap-forward development of science and technology, we must improve the efficiency of the innovation system. In my understanding, this efficiency is the country's independent innovation ability. One of the connotations of taking the road of independent innovation with China characteristics is to improve the efficiency of the innovation system and realize leap-forward development with relatively little investment.
In order to implement the spirit of the 17th National Congress, China Academy of Sciences held various types of symposiums. The Chinese Academy of Sciences will closely focus on the national strategic needs, aim at the forefront of world science, continue to improve the system and mechanism, mobilize the enthusiasm of the staff of the whole hospital, and make basic, forward-looking and strategic scientific and technological innovation contributions to building an innovative country and achieving strategic goals in the new period!
