The fifth China-Africa Future Leaders' Dialogue has kicked off in Jinhua City, in east China's Zhejiang Province, igniting a wave of energy and fresh ideas among young leaders. Chinese and African youth representatives are on a unique journey to witness firsthand a pioneering model of common prosperity.
Exploring the Baxian Jidao Common Prosperity Belt—a project spanning three administrative villages over 472 hectares—the participants learn how local efforts are reshaping rural life. With 2,461 residents across 1,010 farming households, this initiative is integrating natural beauty, agricultural heritage, historical charm, and innovative industry resources.
The project is blending rural leisure tourism, high-end homestays, and cultural and agricultural innovation to build a vibrant, sustainable community. It’s like watching a real-life remix where tradition meets modern creativity, capturing the imagination of everyone involved 🚜🌱.
This immersive experience at the dialogue not only spotlights rural revitalization but also inspires cross-cultural exchange, empowering youths to envision a future where community growth and shared prosperity take center stage.
