In 2018, The China-United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF), partnering with Beijing Foreign Studies University, Beijing Language and Culture University, Hangzhou Wanxiang Polytechnic, and Tongji University successfully hosted five African American student groups to China.
The delegates visited Beijing, Hangzhou and Shanghai, and participated in various activities, which included attending lectures on China-U.S. relations, Chinese history, culture and language, participating in various cultural workshops such as Chinese calligraphy and martial arts, and touring historical sites like the Great Wall and the Forbidden City. Students commented that the trip had helped them understand China better and that they’ve gotten a new and positive perception on the country and people living in it.
This year we have hosted promising student groups to China, which include:
1. Clark Atlanta Student Leaders Study Mission to China
2. Chicago Urban League’s Student Mission to China: The Power of Opportunity
3. Congressmen Butterfield-Clyburn Student Delegation to China
4. Peralta Community College District China Exchange Program
5. Cong. Sheila Jackson Lee-Lone Star China-US Student Exchange Program
