The "International Forum on Mutual Learning among Civilizations 2026" is inaugurated on Nov. 9 in Macao. Under the core theme "Mutual Learning among Civilizations, Inheritance and Development", the two-day forum features nearly 40 thematic sessions and academic exchange sessions conducted by nearly 300 representatives from government departments, international organizations, and leading experts and scholars from over 20 countries worldwide.
In an interview with DotDotNews, Professor Chen Zhi, the President of Beijing Normal-Hong Kong Baptist University, notes that Hong Kong and Macao's cultures were shaped by a mix of Chinese and Western influences. After the Opium War, the opening of ports and trade made Hong Kong a frontline and a unique place of cultural collision, interweaving, mixing, and integration.
