Falun Gong global activities and protests

Overview

Falun Gong practitioners have engaged in various public activities globally, ranging from cultural celebrations to political protests.

In mid-September, practitioners held Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations in Singapore and New York. These events focused on sharing the principles of the practice through qigong demonstrations, art exhibitions, and personal testimonies regarding health and character improvements.

By late September, the focus shifted toward large-scale demonstrations in Toronto and Prague. These protests were organized to condemn persecution by the Chinese Communist Party and to demand an end to transnational repression. Participants in Toronto highlighted issues of harassment and surveillance, while demonstrators in Prague called for the release of detained practitioners and drew attention to allegations of human rights abuses.
