By Liu Dingrui/The World and Chongqing
To further the cooperation on international education and people-to-people exchanges between China and the world, the Preparatory Group of the International Institute under the Trade and Economic Multifunctional Platform for the SCO Countries (SCO TEMP) was inaugurated in Chongqing on March 6.
Deng Rui, President of the SCO TEMP Education Alliance and Leader of the SCO TEMP International Institute Preparatory Group said when receiving the exclusive interview by the journalist that the original goal of setting up the SCO TEMP International Institute is to offer a cross-culture communication platform to teenagers from different countries. By doing so, it aims to stimulate teenagers enthusiasm for innovation and improve their capabilities in innovation and cross-culture communication capability, thus cultivating a new generation of teenagers with the “Shanghai Spirit”.
Creating a New Model for the International Exchange and Cooperation in Education
In 2022, the SCO TEMP and the Chongqing Municipal Education Commission established a working mechanism, forming the SCO TEMP Education Cooperation Working Group. They also coordinated the joint establishment of the SCO TEMP Education Alliance, which includes committees focusing on education services, basic education, vocational education, higher education, international education, and educational think tank associations. The aim is to strategically advance international education cooperation between Chongqing and SCO member states.
“Strengthening international cooperation in education marks a significant consensus among heads of state of the SCO members.” Deng Rui shared that with well-organized planning, the SCO TEMP Education Alliance has been steadily advancing various initiatives and generating initial results.
In 2023, the Alliance organized school trips for adolescents and children in the SCO countries themed on “SCO children heading toward the future together”. A total of 27 adolescents and children from the SCO countries such as China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Myanmar experienced natural landscapes, cultural traditions, and development achievements in the new era in Chongqing and across China, fostering emotional and cultural connections between each other. This event provided insights and examples for international education exchange and cooperation between China and SCO countries, as well as new models of education for youth.
Establishing the International Institute to Gather Excellent Education Resources at Home and Abroad
Deng Rui said that the SCO TEMP Education Alliance is leading the establishment of the SCO TEMP International Institute, aiming to engage the SCO and Belt and Road participating countries in subject-based education, technological innovation, talent development, vocational training, and traditional cultural exchange. The goal is to cultivate industry leaders with a global strategic vision.
From April 24 to 28, Deng Rui led his delegation to visit South Korea, making several achievements through exchanges with organizations under the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea and related universities. The Alliance will actively introduce Korean language resources and set up a Korean learning center in Chongqing, hence meeting the demands of all members of the Alliance in learning Korean, studying abroad, researching, and exchanging in Korea. Meanwhile, the first overseas liaison office of the Alliance will be set up in Koreas Myongji University to explore new ways of international education cooperation and to help the education sector of Chongqing and Southwest China embrace the world.
In the future, the SCO TEMP Education Alliance will collaborate with qualified schools to facilitate cultural exchanges among SCO youth. In higher education, the Alliance will partner with institutions like the Center of Chinese and Greek Ancient Civilizations at Southwest University to extend the reach of the International Institute to Belt and Road partner countries, thus improving its global influence. In secondary vocational education, it will work with schools like Chongqing Womens Vocational Senior School to initiate international cooperation projects to help women and children in third-world countries. Additionally, a supervisory task force will be established, inviting heads of renowned schools and experts from various fields for supervisory purposes and attracting more education leaders to join the SCO talent pool.
“We aim to gather top-notch education resources from home and abroad through the SCO TEMP International Institute, exploring new models for the international development of education, and fostering greater openness in Chinese education,” said Deng Rui.

為加强国际教育合作，促进中外人文交流，3月6日，上海合作组织国家多功能经贸平台（以下简称：上合经贸平台）国际书院筹备工作组在重庆揭牌成立。
上合经贸平台教育工作联盟主席、上合经贸平台国际书院筹备组组长邓睿在接受记者专访时表示，建设上合经贸平台国际书院的初衷，是希望给不同国家的青少年提供一个跨文化交流的平台，激发青少年创新意识、创新能力和跨文化交流能力，培育具有“上海精神”的青少年一代。
打造教育国际交流合作创新范本
2022年，上合经贸平台与重庆市教委共建工作机制，成立教育合作上合工作组，并统筹教育服务、基础教育、中职教育、高等教育、国际教育、教育智库联合会等工作委员会联合发起成立上合经贸平台教育工作联盟，系统谋划推进重庆与上合组织国家间教育国际合作。
“加强国际教育合作是上合组织成员国元首的重要共识。”邓睿表示，上合经贸平台教育工作联盟长远系统谋划教育国际合作，有序推进各项工作走深走实，成果初显。
2023年，该联盟组织举办“上合儿童手牵手 并肩前行向未来”上合组织国家少年儿童游学活动，27位来自中国、哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、缅甸等上合组织国家的少年儿童亲身感受中国及重庆的自然风貌、人文传统、新时代建设成就等，增进彼此情感认同和文化认同。这为中国和上合国家间教育国际交流合作以及青少年教育模式创新提供了思路和范本。
建国际书院汇聚国内外优质教育资源
邓睿表示，上合经贸平台教育工作联盟正牵头打造上合经贸平台国际书院，面向上合组织及共建“一带一路”国家开展学科教育、科技创新、人才培养、职业培训、传统文化交流传播等，培养具有全球战略的各行业领袖人才。
4月24日至28日，邓睿率团赴韩访问，通过与韩国教育部所属组织机构及相关高校进行交流，达成多项合作成果。教育工作联盟将积极引进韩语资源，在渝设立韩语学习中心，满足联盟各成员单位韩语学习以及赴韩留学、研学、交流等需求。同时，在韩国明知大学设立教育工作联盟首个海外联络办公室，推动国际教育创新合作，助力重庆及西南地区教育高水平对外开放。
未来，上合经贸平台教育工作联盟将与具有资质的学校合作，为促进上合青少年间的人文交流搭建桥梁。在高等教育方面，该联盟將联合西南大学中希文明互鉴中心等，将国际书院拓展到共建“一带一路”国家，扩大国际书院的影响力；
在中职教育方面，将联合重庆女子职业高级中学等，与第三世界国家在妇女儿童援助方面开展国际合作项目；
同时，成立督导工作组，邀请国内外知名学校校长、各领域专家组建督导系统队伍，吸引更多教育领袖进入上合组织人才库。
“希望通过上合经贸平台国际书院，汇聚更多国内外优秀教育资源，探索教育国际化创新发展模式，促进中国教育更高水平开放。”邓睿表示。
