Youths from across the Taiwan Strait gathered in Beijing this week for a landmark forum focused on strengthening cultural ties and shared development. The event, held Wednesday, highlighted traditional Chinese culture as a unifying force amid discussions about peace and cooperation.
💡 "Cultural exchange is our spiritual bridge," declared one participant, emphasizing how shared heritage connects communities. The forum notably included a session commemorating the 80th anniversary of Taiwan's restoration to China, featuring descendants of wartime heroes from both sides.
"Peaceful development isn’t just policy – it’s our collective heartbeat," shared a descendant of cross-strait resistance fighters during the emotional historical tribute.
With Gen-Z attendees actively participating, the dialogue blended ancient traditions like wooden movable-type printing demonstrations with modern visions for tech collaboration and youth entrepreneurship programs.
