Description
Brown China Summit 2017
“从制造到创造”是 2017 布朗中国峰会的主题。
After conversations with faculty, classmates and our advisor, we have chosen “From ‘Made in China’ to ‘Created in China’” as the theme for this year’s summit.
在与教授们、布朗同学们以及谢德华顾问的研讨和交流中，布朗中国峰会的组委会逐渐形成共识—“从制造到创造” 将会是对中国乃至全球即将面对的政治经济挑战，机遇和变化的最具代表性的回应。2017 布朗中国峰会，如往年一样，希望为不同群体—无论种族、性别和国别—提供一个讨论和合作的平台在共同寻找解决办法的路上更进一步。
The BCS organizing committee believes this theme is most representative of the challenges and opportunities arising not only in China, but in other parts of the world during this era of political and economic uncertainty. Brown China Summit 2017, more than ever, seeks to provide a platform through which different parties – regardless of race, gender and nationality – can communicate and cooperate to take us one step closer to finding international solutions.
About the Summit
布朗中国峰会是布朗中国留学生发起的文化交流性活动，由布朗大学久负盛名的Watson国际与公共事务学院旗下的中国研究启动中心全权赞助。谢德华教授，作为 Watson 学院主任和布朗中国研究启动中心主任，则出任峰会的顾问。自 2013年成立伊始，布朗中国峰会志在推动并增进布朗学生对中国地区重 要事件的理解。每年,我们吸引超过 900 名布朗学生与应邀而来的嘉宾们—从权威学者，到政府官员，再到公司代表—一起解读趋势，讨论不仅仅是对中国， 更是对全球发展至关重要的事件。
Brown China Summit (BCS) is an annual two-day event held at Brown University with the goal of promoting cross-cultural discussion of China-related topics among the Brown community. BCS is student-run and funded exclusively by the China Initiative at the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs. Edward Steinfeld, director of the Watson Institute and the China Initiative, serves as our chief advisor. Since the summit’s inception in 2013, we have brought together hundreds of Brown students each year into conversation with a diverse group of speakers – ranging from authoritative scholars, government officials and corporate representatives – to highlight trends and discuss issues critical not only to China, but to the world as a whole.
