The 6th China- Sri Lanka Communication and Cooperation Forum
Along with the recent developments in China-Sri Lanka bilateral relations, there has been a rapid increase in the number of researchers conducting research on the new paradigm shifts of China-Sri Lanka relations. China studies, Chinese language and Sino-Sri Lanka relations have become key topics of interest for many researchers. The China-Sri Lanka Communication and Cooperation Forum was initiated in year 2019 as an annual research session organized by the Research Center for China-Sri Lanka Culture Exchange and Economic Development established at Huanggang Normal University. The research center was established under the MOU between Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka and Huanggang Normal University, Huanggang, China. The primary objective of this forum is to serve as a platform for researchers in the two countries to disseminate their research findings on economic, cultural and language exchanges between the two countries, thereby strengthening bilateral cooperation between China and Sri Lanka.
