项目背景
Chinaway Volunteers Program 是连续了十几年的暑假义工项目。这个项目的口号是“帮助他人,提高自己”。在过去的16年里,该项目不仅帮助中国农村及乡镇孩子学习英语口语,美国文化,以及用英文表达中国文化;也培养了美国学生的领导能力,表达能力,于此同时美国学生也提高了中文水平,演讲水平,开阔了学生的国际视野,学会了如何完成现实中的任务。参加这个项目的学生几乎都进入了美国名校。
当今世界,中国与美国是并行于世界的两大社会体系,治国理念,文化传统,管理规则,道德价值等等都有相当的不同。但两个国家的交流合作,或竞争冲突在世界舞台上又扮演了非常重要的作用,所以了解中国,了解不同于西方体系的社会运作系统在世界上如何发挥作用,是非常重要的,对在美国追求卓越的人拥有极大的启迪作用,而此项目能让学生通过实践深入的了解与认识中国。
