A Colorful Chapter Unfolds in Eurasian Economic Development and Youth Power

On September 23, 2023, the Eurasian Youth Leaders Forum convened in Xi’an, with Eurasian youth taking the lead in advancing global youth dialogue and cooperation. As the inaugural youth dialogue within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Forum, the Eurasian Youth Leaders Forum has ushered in a fresh chapter, dedicated to serving youth, fostering a “youthful spirit,” and igniting “youthful wisdom.” It has received extensive attention at home and abroad.

During the forum, major central news outlets in China, including China News Service, People’s Daily Online, CCTV.com, CNR.cn, CRI.com, China.com.cn, Chinadaily.com, Youth.cn, CE.cn, Huanqiu.com, and Hong Kong Commercial Daily, provided multilingual coverage of the forum on more than 10 occasions.

The candid exchanges among Eurasian youth at the Eurasian Youth Leaders Forum serve as an eloquent expression of strengthened cooperation across multiple domains among Eurasian cities, including Xi’an, with young people as the driving force. This expression crystallizes into the “Xi’an Dialogue,” where the thoughts of the youth resonate harmoniously with urban development.

In unision with youth voices, we can truly hear the future. In an era characterized by multi-polarity, economic globalization, and cultural diversity, there is every reason to believe that the Eurasian Youth Leaders Forum, rooted in Xi’an, will mark the start of a cross-regional and cross-cultural cooperation model beneficial to Eurasian youth and conducive to the development of Eurasian cities.
