China-France Cultural Forum Holds Eighth Edition in Paris

The eighth China-France Cultural Forum opened in Paris on November 9, bringing together participants from both countries.

The forum was jointly organized by the Western Returned Scholars Association and France’s Foundation for Prospective and Innovation.

Its theme was moving from cultural exchange to joint creation, building on a decade of work.

Speakers said deeper understanding and practical cooperation can help the two countries work together.

The program included talks and discussions on city links, food and perfume, preserving traditional culture, and art in the age of artificial intelligence.

The forum is part of a high-level cultural exchange mechanism between the two governments.

The ninth forum is planned for Fuzhou next year.
