英国民间组织"筷子俱乐部"联合首席执行官邓丽莎近日介绍了该组织为促进中英文化交流所开展的工作。1"筷子俱乐部"成立于1993年,其核心特色是英中会员各占半数。1邓丽莎强调民间交往在国际关系中的重要作用,指出民间友谊能够打破刻板印象,维系双边关系。1
为进一步推动英国青年对中国的认识,邓丽莎与童海珍于2018年创办了"联结中国"教育公益机构。1该机构设立了专项奖学金,自2023年落地至今,已输送近60名英国学生赴华。1邓丽莎自1983年首次到访中国以来,已积累了逾37年的对华事务经验。1
Deng Lisha, co-chief executive of the British non-governmental organization "Chopsticks Club," has outlined her organization's efforts to foster cultural dialogue between the United Kingdom and China 1. Founded in 1993, the Chopsticks Club maintains a distinctive structure with British and Chinese members comprising equal halves of its membership 1. This balanced composition forms the foundation of its approach to facilitating bilateral understanding and exchange.
Beyond the Chopsticks Club's direct work, Deng Lisha co-founded "Connecting China," an educational charitable organization, alongside Tong Haizhen in 2018 1. The initiative has expanded access to Chinese knowledge in British schools and introduced a scholarship program that, since its establishment in 2023, has enabled nearly 60 British students to study in China 1. Deng Lisha emphasized that people-to-people connections play a vital role in international relations, as grassroots friendships can counter stereotypes and sustain bilateral relationships 1. Drawing from her extensive experience—having first visited China in 1983 and accumulating over 37 years of involvement in China-related affairs—she underscores the significance of informal diplomacy in bridging cultural divides 1.
