Upcoming webinar “Belgium-China cooperation in higher education: China projects"
(22-06-2022) organized by the Belgian-Chinese Chamber of Commerce
30 June 2022, 11.00 CET
As bilateral Chamber of Commerce for China, BCECC is committed to promoting mutual understanding between Belgium and China. What better way to do this than to focus on higher education, where the next generation of young people will be trained and learn to broaden their minds? What does the academic cooperation between our two countries look like, and which China projects do different Belgian universities offer?
Speakers from higher education institutions in Flanders, Wallonia and the Brussels Capital Region will discuss their cooperation with China and the opportunities for students and businesses.
