International Conference on Language, Culture and Education: The Dialogue and Transformation between Chinese Traditional Wisdom and Contemporary Values

Synopsis :

Academy for Educational Development and Innovation at the Education University of Hong Kong is delighted to announce an upcoming conference in 8-9 April 2025, which is dedicated to exploring how traditional Chinese wisdom informs and enhances contemporary efforts to construct the values toward human flourishing. The conference will bring together multifaceted insights from various disciplines, including language, culture, and education, to advance a deep appreciation of the enduring legacy of Chinese wisdom. In an innovative approach aimed at fostering ideas that transcend culture and space, the conference dialogues will be structured around the United Nations’ five pillars of Sustainable Development: people, prosperity, planet, peace, and partnership (see Tremblay et al., 2020). This framework will guide our exploration of how traditional Chinese perspectives can be integrated with contemporary values to build a harmonious world.

This conference is set to be a landmark event, providing a unique platform for participants to engage in profound discussions that bridge the past and the present, as well as the East and the West. It will convene a global assembly of scholars who will share their expertise and collaborate on the development of new insights on human flourishing.
