This year's Nishan Forum is set to take place in Qufu, Shandong on July 10th, a city renowned as the birthplace of Confucius. The forum serves as a vibrant gathering for scholars, policymakers, and enthusiasts to delve into the enduring impact of Confucian philosophy on contemporary Chinese society.
In the latest installment of the series \"Real China: Books & Beyond\", former Icelandic diplomat Ragnar Baldursson emphasized the significance of Confucian values in shaping China's governance structures. Baldursson highlighted how principles such as ren (benevolence) and li (ritual propriety) continue to influence modern leadership and societal norms.
Joining the conversation is CGTN's Liu Xin, who will explore the ways in which these ancient teachings resonate in today's fast-paced world. The forum aims to bridge traditional wisdom with current global challenges, fostering a dialogue that underscores the relevance of Confucian ideals in promoting sustainable and ethical governance.
Attendees can look forward to insightful discussions, cultural exhibitions, and networking opportunities that celebrate China's rich heritage while addressing the complexities of the modern era.
