Internships help develop new talent

In recent years, the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong have expanded cultural, scientific, career-oriented and hobby-related exchanges for young people to provide opportunities to deepen their understanding of traditional culture and facilitate social integration and progress.

Hong Kong's Home Affairs Bureau has joined with the Palace Museum, aka the Forbidden City, in Beijing, the Wolong National Nature Reserve in Sichuan province, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences to organize themed internship programs.

The projects are aimed at expanding young people's knowledge of relevant disciplines and professional fields, and deepen their understanding of the country's development on a number of fronts.
