In today's world, the cultural soft power has been increasingly demonstrating the trend of influencing global development. The era entrusts us with propositions and challenges as to how to advocate and create cultural heritage, to search for and achieve equality and win-win situation in multicultural dialogue and blend.
As the city of cultural communication between China and West, Macau plays a significant role in both the course of “transmission of Western knowledge to the East” and the process of “propagation of Eastern knowledge to the West”. Today, the Macao Forum brings together worldwide politics, business, academic insight to build a platform for regional multicultural high-level dialogues. It is in this hope that Macau invites renowned scholars and professors to explore the road to friendly communication and peaceful coexistence.
Scheduled from 26 to 28 March 2013 at the Venetian Macao Resort Hotel, the first forum will focus on and discuss with the theme of " multiculturalism: Legacy and Innovation." Now it calls for conference papers from domestic and foreign counterparts.
