今年恰逢中国欧洲文化对话年，中国与欧洲的对话已经拉开帷幕，而明年的比赛将以人与人之间的 对话展开，我们也将邀请欧洲儿童以“我心目中的中国”共同参赛。
Based on the success of the 1st “Europe in my Heart” drawing competition organized for Chinese children in 2011 in Beijing, the 2nd “Europe in my Heart” drawing competition has been subsequently organized in 2012 by the EU Delegation in China and “The World and China” Magazine.
This year a new venue has also been added. Besides Beijing, as a traditional venue, the drawings have also been displayed at the headquarters of the European Commission of the EU as well, in the building Berlaymont situated just in the heart of the EU district of Brussels.
The Beijing exhibition was inaugurated by Lady Catherine Ashton, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice President of the European Commission earlier in July. The Brussels exhibition ran from September 25 till October 10 2012.
Ms. Androulla Vassiliou, Member of the European Commission in charge of Education, Culture, Multilingualism and Youth, Mr. Wu Hailong, Head of the Mission of China to the EU and Ms. Lin Nagy, founder of the Magazine “The World and China” and co-organizer of the exhibition addressed the audience at its closing ceremony.
This time the exhibition was organized under the umbrella of the Year of EU-China Intercultural Dialogue. The continuation of the exhibition is already foreseen for the next year under the framework of the people to people dialogue, as this so called 3rd pillar of the EU-China dialogue has been established recently.
According to the plans, besides the continuation of “Europe in my Heart” children drawing competition, EU children will also be invited next year to submit their drawings under the theme: “My Dream of China”.
