International Promotion of Chinese Language in the New Era

Abstract

The Belt and Road Initiative (B&R) has provided a brand new opportunity for the International Education of Chinese Language (IECL) since 2013. For the purpose of promoting Chinese language education, this article analyzes the status quo of the IECL and problems in the development of IECL, and then proposes constructive strategies for its better development under new circumstances. It is believed that the IECL should adopt “bringing in” and “going out” development strategies as well as actively explore new modes of Chinese language education. Valuing the roles of non-profit organizations and enterprises in Chinese language education under the guidance of Chinese government is also of great importance.
