This summer, more than 400 foreign students and more than 400 Chinese students from 66 colleges and universities participated in the social practice week activities of Chinese and foreign college students, covering more than 20 provinces, centering on the theme of "China's decade", going deep into villages, communities, enterprises, parks and other grassroots frontlines to carry out special investigations and other practical activities, experience Chinese civilization up close during the visit, and understand the Chinese road in practice.
Touch China's mountains and rivers to reach consensus on Chinese culture
General Secretary Xi Jinping once pointed out at the National Conference on Propaganda and Ideological Work that "the excellent traditional Chinese culture is the cultural root of the Chinese nation, and the ideological concepts, humanistic spirit and moral norms contained in it are not only the core of our Chinese thinking and spirit, but also of great value to solving human problems." ”

Feeling Rural Revitalization and Talking about China's experience
This summer, Chinese and foreign university students went into the fields, worked with farmers, and understood the Chinese power behind the "great miracle" of China's poverty alleviation through cordial conversations and experiences.

Chinese and foreign college students walked into the "Targeted Poverty Alleviation" exhibition hall and through the "Targeted Poverty Alleviation" square to learn that kiwifruit grown by local villagers was exported to Hong Kong and Macao, and the local brand mountain spring water was even placed in the Great Hall of the People.
"Eighteen Dong Village has not only achieved poverty alleviation itself, but also formed a replicable and scalable poverty alleviation experience. I hope that this experience can also be applied to my country to make the people of Nepal happier. Badik, a Nepalese student from Central South University, looks forward to more countries and regions to eradicate poverty, improve people's livelihood, and achieve common prosperity.
On February 25, 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping solemnly announced that the mainland had achieved a comprehensive victory in poverty alleviation, with all 98.99 million rural poor people lifted out of poverty under the current standards, all 832 poor counties lifted off their hats, and all 128,000 poor villages listed.
This summer, many international students in China have left their footprints in rural China. In Shenshan Village, Chinese and foreign students from Jiangxi University of Finance and Economics listened to Peng Xiaying, an advanced individual in poverty alleviation in the country, tell the story of opening a farmhouse and becoming a well-off home, and explore the "Shenshan answer sheet" for poverty alleviation and rural revitalization.

David believes that "young people at home and abroad have the power to shape the future. This experience motivates me to use the power of youth to continue to study in China and promote Africa's development with Chinese experience. ”
Feel the red culture and decipher the development code
Use Chinese theory to explain Chinese practice, and use Chinese practice to sublimate Chinese theory. In these stories, it is not difficult to see the spiritual qualities of Chinese people who are industrious, brave, pioneering and innovative, and even more difficult to see the wisdom of the Chinese nation in self-improvement, tolerance and openness. This summer, Chinese and foreign college students saw the real, three-dimensional and comprehensive China in the stories of China's development.
Chinese and foreign university students from Fudan University visited the "Shikumenli Memorial Hall" at the site of the Second National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and understood the revolutionary spirit of the Communist Party of China that is not afraid of sacrifice and dares to struggle, and comprehends the endless resilience of the Chinese nation. Under the vivid explanations of the old party members, the thoughts of Chinese and foreign college students at Southeast University were brought back to that era of war. Isaac, an East Timorese student from Southeast University, was deeply moved: "It is precisely because these great communists adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly that this party keeps pace with the times and maintains its vitality."
Listen to traditions under the maple tree, looking for lights in front of the octagonal tower. Comrade Mao Zedong wrote immortal works such as "Why China's Red Regime Can Exist" and "The Struggle in Jinggangshan" by the weak light of a wick in Jinggangshan. Carmen, an international student from Equatorial Guinea, was familiar with the story of the octagonal tower's "wick" before her trip. This on-the-spot experience made her admire the CPC's ability to persist in the struggle under such difficult conditions and eventually lead to victory.
The red spirit continues from generation to generation. Despite the constant changes in the external conditions of society, the original intention of the CPC to serve the people has never changed.
In Xuanwei, Yunnan, Chinese and foreign university students from Kunming University of Science and Technology focused on "education development in border areas", went to Puwa Village to conduct detailed research on school construction and teacher allocation, and taught a vivid and interesting lesson for primary school students.

In Nanning, Guangxi, Chinese and foreign students from Guangxi University for Nationalities walked into the high-rise buildings and landmark buildings of the China-ASEAN Financial City. In recent years, the cross-border e-commerce industry and global cross-border trade services in Nanning Area have grown rapidly. From the first batch of residents to the current implementation of RCEP, the total amount of foreign trade imports and exports in Guangxi Pilot Zone is as high as 50.32 billion yuan. Laotian student Song Siya saw the prosperity of the Nanning area of the Guangxi Pilot Free Trade Zone and hoped to stay in Nanning to work after graduation and contribute to the political, economic and cultural exchanges between the two countries.

"We visited the prosperous rural streets of the beautiful village of Yinda, which shattered my stereotype of rural China." An Ethiopian student from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications said that China will definitely be better and stronger in the future. "In the past, Chinese culture was mysterious to me." Lanna, an international student who has immersed herself in cloisonné production, said, "I am willing to learn more about traditional Chinese culture and traditional skills, spread it to more international students, and bring these artworks back to my country." ”
In this practice, Chinese and foreign college students understood the meaning of "a hundred stories are better than one sight", and in close contact, they understood today's China and the Communist Party of China, and understood the mode and path of China's development. Everyone wants to become the disseminator of Chinese stories, bringing what they have seen, heard, and thought to all directions after traveling thousands of miles.
