In search of a new paradigm in Europe-China relations

The workshop “Challenges and advantages of Euro-Chinese dialogue”, scheduled for Lisbon in the coming 3rd and 4th of October, as part of the 2nd China-EU Forum taking place in Brussels, from 6 to 8 of October 2007, has a special significance as it will happen in Portugal, the current EU presidency.

Participants in the Lisbon event will be comprised of academics from various fields, representing disciplines such as history, culture, politics and economics, chambers of commerce, businesspersons and artist, coming from several cities in China, including the Macau SAR, and Europe, including Portugal.

The workshop itself is among forty similar events, debating different themes, taking place almost simultaneously in several European cities, whose conclusions will be presented at the already mentioned Forum in Brussels. This bottom-up approach follows the tradition of the inaugural China-Europe Forum, which came into existence in the city of Nansha, Guandong province of the PRC, in October 2005.
