Scholars from home and abroad reached "Nishan Consensus" to encourage mutual learning among civilizations
On September 27 , the Chairman's Declaration on the Integration of Civilizations toward a Community with a Shared Future for Mankind was presented. The Declaration, reflecting the consensus of the scholars from home and abroad, points out that in face of complex world situations and global issues, no nation or state can stay isolated and no civilization can move forward alone. Mutual learning among civilizations is an important impetus to promote human civilization progress and world peace development. Dialogues among civilizations would serve as a bridge for the mutual learning among diversified civilizations.
The vice provincial secretary and the provincial governor of Shandong Gong Zheng stated in his address that "the Fifth Nishan Forum has converged the power of thought, enhanced the power of integration, contributed to a cultural consensus, and promoted the mutual learning among civilizations." He also said that as the hometown of Confucius and Mencius and a place of ceremonies, Shandong would draw on the wisdom of others, give full play to its own cultural advantages, and fully strengthen the brand of Nishan Forum to create a highland for the mutual learning among world civilizations. He hoped that different civilizations could maintain the diversity of civilizations and encourage exchanges and mutual learning to jointly build a community of a shared future for mankind.
