Success: Vision & Action

Cambridge University Education Without Borders (CUEWB) held International Forum, Shanghai (IFS) in collaboration with Cambridge University Chinese Cultural Society (CUCCS) on Saturday, 17 September 2011. Following the success of CUEWB’s “Success: Vision & Action” series of international forums in Beijing, Xiamen, Cambridge, and Hong Kong, the Shanghai forum provided an opportunity for 250 university students to hear three speakers who gave their view of China, and of what it takes for young Chinese people to succeed in today’s innovation-driven transformation and development of the Chinese economy in the globalised world.

CUEWB also held its inaugural local project,

• Talk on Surviving the Financial Crisis (TSFC)

in December 2008. Feedbacks from the participating students were very positive and we are committed to organising more such projects in the future. Currently, we are thinking of organising a follow-up talk to TSFC in Cambridge this term. We are also seeking to bring our activities to countries other than China and the UK.

To ensure the rapid development of CUEWB and the success of its future projects, we need enthusiastic individuals to join us!
