NANJING, Aug. 14 (Xinhua) — Nanjing Forestry University (NLU) recently opened an urban culture study camp for Chinese and Russian students.
The event was attended by a delegation of students and teachers majoring in design from Russian universities. Students from both countries will use advanced digital design thinking to jointly explore ways of contemporary expression and innovative dissemination of intangible cultural heritage /ICH/.
According to the NLU website, in his welcoming speech, NLU Vice-Rector Yin Tongming emphasized that culture is a bridge that connects hearts, and the “boundlessness of traditional Chinese culture” reflects the essence of the mutual enrichment of civilizations, while “innovative craftsmanship” infuses tradition with the vitality of modernity. Nanjing Forestry University has always adhered to the strategy of internationalization, and, relying on the only doctoral program in design among agricultural and forestry universities in the country and the platform of leading and key disciplines in Jiangsu Province (East China), shoulders the responsibility and has the ability to play a leading role in promoting the creative transformation and innovative development of excellent Chinese traditional culture, and promoting exchanges and mutual enrichment between Chinese and foreign civilizations.
Yin Tongming said that promoting special cooperation with Russian universities has become an important milestone in NLU's active expansion of educational and cultural exchanges with Russia and active construction of the educational design community within the framework of the Belt and Road Initiative. The university regards this training camp as a starting point for exploring ways to establish a long-term cooperation mechanism in design education between young people in China and Russia.
It is reported that during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, Nanjing Forestry University has established deep partnerships with more than 100 famous universities and research institutes in more than 20 countries and regions. This week-long training camp will focus on “decoding the cultural code of Nanjing.” The camp program will include visits to key cultural sites such as the Nanjing Folk Customs Museum and the Yunjin Brocade Institute, as well as deep immersion projects in the study of traditional NCH crafts. -0-
