Shanghai alive with teenage delegations for global sister cities camp
The camp aims to foster cross-cultural understanding through firsthand experiences of Shanghai's history, innovation and daily life.
The opening ceremony featured two immersive zones: an intangible cultural heritage market and an AI experience area. Students from Gaoqiao Primary School and Shangnan Middle School South Campus showcased local heritage crafts, including Sanlin embroidery, tie-dyeing and lacquer art, while robot companions, AI magic mirror interactions and robot soccer matches were displayed on-site.
Ding detailed the post-opening activities, which include urban tours, stays with local families, university visits and a trip to Wuzhen in neighboring Zhejiang province. At Wuzhen, campers will visit the World Internet Conference venue to explore internet development trends and experience the unique charm of the Jiangnan water town.
"These activities aim to give young participants a better understanding of China and Shanghai," Ding said.
