<strong>Peking</strong> <strong>University</strong>, Beijing, Sep. 10th, 2007: Thirteen students and teachers from<br />

<strong>PKU</strong> were invited by Klaus Schwab, executive chairman <strong>of</strong> the World Economic<br />

Forum, to participate in the third Global Youth Leaders Summit held in Dalian from<br />

September 4 to 8. This summit was an important component <strong>of</strong> Summer Davos<br />

Forum (World Economic Forum) and an annual gathering for members <strong>of</strong> the Global<br />

Youth Leadership Forum.<br />

It was the first time through the history <strong>of</strong> this forum that the Chairman personally<br />

invited students <strong>of</strong> the host country to take part in the Summit and dialogue with the<br />

world youth leaders.<br />

During the summit, student representatives <strong>of</strong> <strong>PKU</strong> were separated into different<br />

groups to exchange ideas with more than 200 world's youth leaders face-to-face on<br />

various topics ranging from the past thirty years <strong>of</strong> China's reform and opening up to<br />

forecasting China's future economic development; from the development <strong>of</strong><br />

disciplines in universities to China's education system, etc. Fields such as politics,<br />

economics, education and tourism provided students and youth leaders with in-depth<br />

exchange topics.<br />

Through this successful dialogue, youth leaders abroad understood more about the<br />

Chinese young people, and found answers to the issues they were concerned about.<br />

At the same time, <strong>PKU</strong> students also benefited a lot from this great opportunity by<br />

communicating with world elites and learning from their way to success.<br />
