美國內(nèi)布拉斯加林肯大學前校長Harvey Perlman、佐治亞州立大學孔子學院外方院長Kimberly Griffin Henshaw、蒙古國立大學孔子學院中方院長朱軍利在發(fā)言中均提到，新漢學計劃拓寬了青年學者的學術視野，提升了專業(yè)人才的實踐能力，加深了他們對全球化環(huán)境下的中國的理解，而這些對中國與各國之間的人文交流產(chǎn)生深遠影響。Perlman 教授指出，中美法學對比的專項研修非常注重學術品質(zhì)，融合中美各自學術傳統(tǒng)，在師資匹配和課程設置上對學生具備很大的吸引力，參與學生不但獲得知識和經(jīng)驗的提升，還可以獲得法學院學分。這一項目得到了其他一些美國法學教授以及律師協(xié)會的認可。

四川大學副校長晏世經(jīng)提到，新漢學項目的博士生多擁有世界一流大學的研究背景，通過他們帶來的獨特研究方法及視角，與國內(nèi)導師團隊和青年學者進行交流與碰撞，對提升整個學科的研究水平有很大的促進作用。

德國漢堡大學孔子學院外方院長康易清與中方院長李雙志認為復旦大學與德國漢堡大學在新漢學支持下聯(lián)合培養(yǎng)雙學位博士，推動了兩?？蒲薪涣骱蛯W術合作，提供了鼓勵優(yōu)秀青年學者跨界研究的模式，對培養(yǎng)具有國際化學術思維的人才具有積極作用。

北京外國語大學孔子學院工作處處長金利民談到，青年領袖項目為世界不同領域的專業(yè)人才提供了學術與文化兼容的深度學習體驗，且高效地促成了實質(zhì)性的后續(xù)合作。北外承辦的“意大利青年翻譯家”項目已初步與外研社、商務印書館等達成20 部書目的翻譯合作意向。

1.品牌意味著專業(yè)發(fā)展和質(zhì)量保證

建立品牌項目的關鍵是要找準定位，注重根據(jù)受眾需求做好做精項目內(nèi)容建設；設定嚴格標準把好質(zhì)量關；通過實踐不斷提高和改進服務專業(yè)水平，在發(fā)展過程中要堅持核心原則，警惕分散聚焦。

2.品牌項目需要持續(xù)創(chuàng)新，培育忠實的品牌受眾群體

要重視與項目參與者的互動，打造歸屬感和榮譽感；了解在品牌項目已提供內(nèi)容外受眾所需要的服務，不斷豐富和更新服務內(nèi)容。

3.打造品牌項目需要資源集成

與會代表倡議以更加開放的心態(tài)，廣泛建立合作，發(fā)揮政府、市場、教育機構、智庫、文化藝術機構、NGO等各方力量，集結中外優(yōu)勢資源，建立廣泛而多樣的支持基礎，共同打造品牌項目。倡導開展區(qū)域合作，充分聯(lián)動，很多發(fā)言人提出了跨國、跨區(qū)域的合作方案，分享了資源共享、優(yōu)勢互補的經(jīng)驗方法。

就“如何匯聚各方資源共同促進雙向文化交流”，英國蘭開夏中央大學孔子學院外方院長余斐霞提出，在文化交流品牌項目方面，要發(fā)揮孔子學院的平臺作用，整合資源促成合作，而不是都由自身生產(chǎn)項目。同時指出，整合資源要關注共同的興趣點和各自的優(yōu)勢，形成互補關系促成雙贏結果。

美國瓦爾普萊索大學副校長Rick AmRhein 指出，充分了解孔院所在大學和當?shù)刭Y源是必要和易操作的方法，大學的使命之一含有對學生國際多元文化理解力的培養(yǎng)，這與孔院傳播中國文化的使命是相關聯(lián)的，這種契合正能助力雙向文化交流項目的開展。開放包容的態(tài)度是各方資源合作的保證。

北京市文化和旅游局對外交流與合作處處長楊連霞介紹了“歡樂春節(jié)”“北京之夜”等文旅品牌項目，基于與多所孔子學院的已有合作，從資源方代表的角度充分肯定了孔子學院彰顯的平臺作用，以及彼此聯(lián)動影響力倍增的潛力，愿意與孔子學院進一步合作。

Through this “bridge”, many foreign youngsters have realized their dreams, stepped onto the international stage,and become ambassadors of mutual exchanges between Chinese and foreign civilizations. In 2013, Australian champion Alistair Bayley expressed the theme speech on the importance of diverse culture to the world and individuals in Chinese at the United Nations Headquarters in New York after participating in the competition.

Harvey Perlman, Former President of the University of Nebraska Lincoln in the U.S., Kimberly Griffin Henshaw, Foreign Director of the Confucius Institute at Georgia State University,and Zhu Junli, Chinese Director of the Confucius Institute at Mongolian National University, all mentioned in their speeches that the CCSP has broadened the vision of young scholars,enhanced practical ability of professional talents, and deepened their understanding of China in a globalized environment, which has far-reaching significance for cultural exchanges between China and other countries. Professor Perlman pointed out that special study of China-US legal comparison attaches great importance to academic quality, and integrates academic traditions of China and the US, which has great attraction to students in terms of teachers and curriculum setting. Students can not only gain knowledge and experience, but also obtain law school credits. This project has been approved by other American law professors and bar associations.

Vice President Yan Shijing shared Sichuan University’s experience in strictly screening the CCSP instructors, innovating the “Multi-College Linkage” talent training mode, and encouraging students to conduct interdisciplinary research by virtue of its unique research platform and advantageous subjects. In the future, it will also be used to promote a series of translation and research of ancient Chinese famous poems. Yan Shijing,Vice President of Sichuan University, mentioned that from the perspective of Chinese universities, doctoral students of the CCSP are of high level and standard, and most scholars have the research background of world-class universities. Through their unique research methods and perspectives, exchanges and collisions with domestic tutor teams and young scholars have greatly promoted the research level of the whole discipline.

Carsten Krause, Foreign Director of the Confucius Institute at the University of Hamburg in Germany, and Li Shuangzhi,the Chinese director, both agreed with the above views. They believed that Fudan University and the University of Hamburg jointly cultivated double-degree doctorates with support of the CCSP, which promoted scientific research exchanges and academic cooperation between the two universities, provided a model to encourage outstanding young scholars to conduct cross-border research, and played a positive role in cultivating talents with international academic thinking.

Jin Limin, Director of the Office of Confucius Institutes at Beijing Foreign Studies University, said that the Young Leaders Fellowship Program has provided professionals in different fields worldwide with an in-depth learning experience that is both academic and cultural compatible, which has effectively promoted substantive follow-up cooperation. In the Italian Young Translator project hosted by Beijing Foreign Studies University, many students have initially reached an intention to cooperate in the translation of 20 bibliographies with Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press and The Commercial Press through two weeks of research and in-depth exchanges with Chinese writers,translators, publishing houses and book exhibitions. The CCSP will support their development towards more professional translators.

Li Jianmin, Deputy Foreign Director of the Confucius Institute at the National University of Laos, and a doctoral student in the CCSP, hoped that all universities would clarify academic requirements for doctoral students’ graduation as soon as possible, strengthen communication between supervisors and doctoral students, especially academic supervision and guidance, and at the same time give care and guidance to doctoral students whose graduation is postponed due to unfinished research. In response,Jin Limin introduced the entire support system for the training of the CCSP doctoral students in Beijing Foreign Studies University, including special collective activities to cultivate students’sense of belonging; setting up workshops to provide academic guidance for doctoral students in writing Chinese papers; actively recommending students to give lectures and lessons, with a view to encourage them to combine learning with practice and promote learning through teaching; strengthening students’ cultural and social investigation so that they can have a deep understanding of China.

3. Building branded projects require resource integration

The delegates advocated to establish a more open-minded and broad-based cooperation to give play to the roles of government, markets, educational institutions, think-tanks, cultural and artistic institutions, NGOs and other parties; to gather Chinese and foreign advantages to establish a wide and diverse foundation and jointly built branded projects.

At the same time, it is important to strengthen the depth and frequency of communication between young teachers and students based on the Confucius Institute.

Mamoun Abu Al Sebaa, Foreign Director of the Confucius Institute at Amman TAG in Jordan, from an enterprise’s perspective, proposed the need to expand partnerships and integrate resources more openly. At the same time, professionals should be hired to plan and publicize projects specifically for cultural activities for communication and public relations. It is necessary to combine online and offline promotion to ensure a virtuous circle of project development and target group’s experience.

On “how to gather resources to promote two-way cultural exchanges?”, Yu Feixia, Foreign Director of the Confucius Institute at Central University of Lancashire in U.K., proposed that in terms of branded projects of cultural exchange, the Confucius Institute should play a role as platform and integrate resources to promote cooperation, instead of producing all projects by itself.Meanwhile, she pointed out that the integration of resources should focus on the common points of interest and their respective advantages, and formed a complementary relationship to promote win-win results.

Rick AmRhein, Vice President of the Valparaiso University in the U.S., pointed out that it is necessary and easy to understand the host university and local resources. One of the missions of the university is the cultivation of students’ international multicultural understanding, which is related to the mission of the Confucius Institute to spread Chinese culture. This kind of correspondence just helps to promote the development of two-way cultural exchange projects. An open and inclusive attitude is the guarantee of resource cooperation among all parties.

Yang Lianxia, Director of the Foreign Exchange and Cooperation Department of the Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism, introduced the “Happy Spring Festival”, “Beijing Night”and other cultural tourism branded projects.
