With cultural exchanges and many learning and sharing activities, it can also serve as the start of new friendships, new ambitions and Olympic passion.

China dispatches 53 athletes to attend 57 events at the Lausanne 2020, more than doubling its representation at the previous two editions, taking the Games as a testing ground for its plan of full participation in 109 events at the Winter Olympic Games on home soil two years away.

The Lausanne 2020 had eight competition sites, with Nordic combined, ski jumping and biathlon held in Les Tuffes in neighboring France, making it the first binational Winter Youth Olympics in history.
