However, the goals are far from being achieved; we still have to strive for them. Eastern and Western countries have different cultural traditions, while they are compatible as the two cultural traditions can be integrated, enriched and complemented. In the era of globalization, Eastern and Western, Northern and Southern countries should learn from each other, especially in terms of cultural traditions and values. We all live in one world and have common concerns about our society and the future of humanity. In order to avoid wars, conflicts, and violence, we need to build a new type of international relations featuring win-win cooperation and a community of shared future for our common humanity. Some topics of this conference are listed below: 1. Common values of all human beings 2. Eastern and Western cultural traditions 3. Multicultural identity in the era of globalization 4. Contemporary Chinese Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era 5.
