Winter Meets the Blazing Sun

Han Xiao had coasted through life for 28 years: a Columbia graduate, mentored by a Nobel Prize-winning academic. He never expected that on his very first day back in China as a specially recruited expert, someone would leave him humiliated in the parking lot outside the task force’s offices.

“Accessible ramps with a ground slope no steeper than 1:20;

Every newly built residential community must have a center for people with disabilities;

The people you patiently talked down one moment might be standing on a windowsill, ready to jump the next...”

Through the “Accessible Environment Development” project, Lin Jiaoyang gradually leads him into the lives of a community unlike any he has known.

Being out of school, unemployment, poverty, illness...

Like a ray of light, Lin Jiaoyang resolutely and persistently breaks through the suffocating barriers fate has put in her way, bringing miracles and new possibilities to more people.

In 2022, China had more than 90 million people with disabilities. The development of services for people with disabilities will create more possibilities for them, so that, like everyone else, they can embrace a confident, positive, wonderful, and prosperous tomorrow.
