At the seminar, barrier-free movie clips in both Chinese and English produced by the "Guangming Cinema" team at CUC were also shown, putting forward a Chinese proposal for building a disability-inclusive society to the international community.
In 2017, the CUC, in cooperation with Beijing Gehua CATV Network and Dongfang Jiaying Television Cinema Media Co Ltd, jointly lunched "Guangming Cinema" public welfare project. More than 800 teachers and students have since volunteered to produce more than 700 barrier-free films for the visually impaired. Volunteers insert voice descriptions about the images in the movies in between dialogue and sound from the films, so people with visual impairments can enjoy them.
The seminar was held at the Academic Center of the CUC, on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the university.
