At the heart of Beijing, students from around the globe are coming together with a shared vision: to make the world a better place. Renmin University of China recently became a hub for young minds from Europe, Africa, and Southeast Asia, all eager to delve into China’s political landscape and contribute to global development.
As China continues to open its doors, it’s attracting international talent keen to experience its rich culture and dynamic growth first-hand. These students have found that living, studying, and working in China offers unique insights into the nation’s politics and lifestyle.
In anticipation of China’s most significant annual political gatherings, the Two Sessions, CGTN’s Li Jingjing sat down with these enthusiastic scholars. They discussed their reasons for engaging with China’s political processes and how these experiences could foster mutual understanding among different cultures.
The highlight of their meeting was the launch of the Initiative on Youth Development: Together for a Shared Future! This initiative calls upon young people worldwide to bridge cultural gaps and address misunderstandings in our ever-changing world.
“We believe that by uniting efforts, we can create positive changes that transcend borders,” said one student participant. “Our goal is to encourage dialogue and cooperation among youth globally.”
This movement reflects a growing trend of international youth taking active roles in shaping policies and promoting cross-cultural understanding. As global challenges become more interconnected, the voices of young people are more crucial than ever.
Through their experiences in China, these students hope to inspire others to join them in building a future characterized by collaboration and shared success.
