Hey South and Southeast Asia fam! 🌟 The 2025 U.S.-China People27s Dialogue just kicked off in LA, shining a spotlight on how people-to-people exchanges can supercharge global ties. From AI innovations to pop culture vibes, this three-day event is co-hosted by CISS at Tsinghua University (on the Chinese mainland) and the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations (NCUSCR).
This year27s theme, 22Bridging the Cultural and Informational Divide,22 dives into higher education insights, the latest in artificial intelligence, social media trends, and the experiences of the Chinese American community. Over 30 experts—think scholars, tech gurus, and culture mavens—are sharing their takes on building trust and understanding at the grassroots level.
Yang Bin, vice chair of Tsinghua University Council, says the fresh 22group dialogue+22 format—mixing plenaries, breakout sessions, field visits and chats with international students—brings deeper, more focused convos than ever before. It27s like your favorite mixtape playlist, but for diplomatic talks! 🎧
Stephen Orlins, president of NCUSCR, reminds us that 22people-to-people exchanges are the foundation.22 Without that solid base, 22the structure is weak.22 Whether you27re coding an app in Bangalore, streaming K-dramas with subtitles, or planning your next study abroad in the U.S., these exchanges set the stage for real connection.
So, what27s next? If all goes well, expect more open channels—think student programs, tech collaborations and cultural fests—that can empower youths from Mumbai to Manila. After all, the future of global harmony starts with you and me talking, sharing and creating together. 🌏🤝
As the three-day dialogue wraps up today, keep an eye out for fresh takeaways that could shape how we connect across borders! ✈️
