As time goes by, the world and China meet again at the 8th World Conference on Sinology. This year marks the tenth anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative. Over the past decade, countries along the Belt and Road have achieved tangible results in infrastructure construction, trade, investment, and cultural exchanges, bringing the world closer together. At this critical juncture of the past and future, as a platform for the “Knowledge Belt and Road Initiative,” the World Conference on Sinology will continue its efforts to promote scholarly exchanges, knowledge sharing, and talent cultivation.
