International exchanges have played a significant role in advancing civilization, technological innovation, economic prosperity and social development, a media expert said at the Forum on Cultural Heritage Conservation in Beijing on Tuesday.
Chen Rui, vice-chairman and secretary-general of the Chinese Society for Science and Technology Journalism, said the dissemination of technology is an effective way to pool various production and technical resources.
He called upon relevant parties to establish an international technology dissemination platform that promotes interdisciplinary integration and communication and breaks down barriers between countries and disciplines.
"New horizons for international civilian scientific and technological exchanges should be expanded in a more inclusive and friendly manner," he said.
The idea is to spur innovation with established talent and contribute more to the construction of a community with a shared future for humanity on the basis of openness, trust and cooperation, he said.
The forum, with the theme "Civilizations in Harmony", was co-hosted by China Daily, the National Cultural Heritage Administration and the Asia News Network. Delegates from news organizations and cultural heritage departments from home and abroad gathered to share their insightful thoughts on how to build a shared future for the continent through the strength of culture and media.
