| Summary / Abstract (Note) | People-to-people diplomacy is an initiative put forward by the Communist Party of China (CPC) under the diplomatic work of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). It aims at promoting friendship between peoples and advancing relations between countries, with distinct Chinese features developed in its long course of practice. The Chinese People’s Institute of Foreign Affairs (CPIFA), the first institute of New China dedicated to people-to-people diplomacy, was established under the proposal of the then Premier and Foreign Minister Zhou Enlai, who also served as the institute’s honorary president. Founded on 15 December 1949, the same year as the People’s Republic, the CPIFA has worked on behalf of the Chinese people in creating a new chapter in China’s interaction with the rest of the world, and contributed to the remarkable progress in people-to-people diplomacy of New China over the past seven decades. |
