Deadline: 19 September 2012
The All-China Journalists Association, the Better Hong Kong Foundation and the East-West Center jointly launched the 1st China-United States Journalists Exchange in 2010 to increase and deepen public understanding of the two countries and their relationship. The program offers opportunities for six to seven Chinese journalists to travel to the United States and six to seven U.S. journalists to travel to China.
The Chinese participants visit Washington D.C. and one to two other cities in the U.S. while the American journalists will visit Beijing, another mainland China city and Hong Kong. Following these study tours, all Chinese and American journalists meet for a 2-day dialogue to share their travel experiences and observations and to exchange opinions on how media coverage of each country can be improved.
THEME: "US-China Relations after the Election"
With leadership change in China, the US Presidential Election, and the growing importance of China-US relations in global affairs and the global economy, the 2012 program will provide opportunities for Chinese and US journalists to explore the dynamics of US-China relations, as well as economic, social, cultural and political impacts in China and the United States. The journalists will meet with government and business leaders, academics, journalists, non-governmental organizations and other members of Chinese and American communities.
All participants will meet in Honolulu for a 2-day dialogue after their study tours.
