Celebrating 35 Years of US-China Exchange – July 10, 2014

Posted by Project Pengyou on July 14th, 2014  2466 views


On July 10th, 2014, Project Pengyou was honored to co-organize a major event at the Great Hall of the People celebrating 35 years of US-China student and scholarly exchange.

The program was a collaboration with the China Scholarship Council and was held in conjunction with the fifth annual Consultation on People to People Exchange (CPE). The invite-only gathering brought together two hundred and fifty people from over 20 institutions involved in US-China educational exchange. Held in the Henan Room on the fourth floor, it was the first time that Project Pengyou was invited to organize an event at the historic Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
