A few minor concerns. In addition to those mentioned above, the translation "Ride to Beijing" seems odd to me – does that translation come from one of the sources? If not, I think "Ride Beijing" may be a better translation. —

ALT1: ... that University of Exeter lecturer Fu Jia and his coauthors said in 2017 that "uniquely for any hotel in China", Fairmont Beijing has three workers who have learning disabilities?
ALT2: ... that a 2017 Routledge book said that "uniquely for any hotel in China", Fairmont Beijing has three workers who have learning disabilities?
ALT3: ... that a 2017 Routledge-published book said that "uniquely for any hotel in China", Fairmont Beijing has three workers who have learning disabilities?
The hotel is attempting to engage in corporate social responsibility through helping people with learning disabilities. It purchases food from farms staffed by people with intellectual disabilities. It employs works who have learning disabilities. I don't think the hotel has tokenized these workers. I think this DYK hook is respectful of the people with intellectual disabilities and is not tokenizing them but will defer to others' opinion on this. Cunard ( talk) 05:58, 11 October 2022 (UTC)1.8 Social responsibility efforts
In another venture, Fairmont has started to work with children with Down's syndrome. In China the government usually looks after children with Down's syndrome until they are 14; then they are sent back to their families. Many do not get to play an active party in society. People with disabilities in China often have fewer opportunities than the general population. Of the 19 to 21 million such people in China, only 7.1% have meaningful employment. In Beijing, there is a special commune, Te Eo Farm, which tries to integrate with intellectual disabilities into society by providing work for them in orchards or helping farmers. ... Fairmont buys fruit (apples, pears, peaches and apricots) from the farm to support the workers in their desire to contribute to society. ... Fairmont currently is the only hotel that buys from the special commune....
With the assistance of a job trainer, Fairmont hopes to help students from the special commune feel more empowered. As Reto Borer says, "they have their dreams, aspirations, and wishes for themselves and their families. If Fairmont can make a difference here, then that is corporate social responsibility." At Fairmont Beijing, uniquely for any hotel in China, there are already three employees with learning disabilities.
I don't see this DYK hook as making "making only a perfunctory or symbolic effort to be inclusive to members of minority groups". Cunard ( talk) 07:23, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
