CGTN : Deux ans après son lancement, l’Initiative pour la civilisation mondiale chinoise est plus que jamais d’actualité dans un monde en mal de repères

Le CGTN a publié un article sur le deuxième anniversaire de l’Initiative pour la civilisation mondiale proposée par le président chinois Xi Jinping, qui est plus que jamais d’actualité dans le contexte d’incertitudes, de bouleversements et de divisions que nous connaissons aujourd’hui. Cet article, qui présente les efforts déployés par la Chine vis-à-vis de la mise en œuvre de l’Initiative ainsi que les points de vue d’experts et de chercheurs, met en exergue le respect de la Chine envers la diversité des civilisations. Cela fait de ce pays un modèle de premier plan dans la promotion de la paix et de la stabilité dans le monde.

PÉKIN, 16 mars 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Il y a deux ans, le président chinois Xi Jinping a présenté l’Initiative pour la civilisation mondiale (ICM), appelant au respect de la diversité culturelle, à la promotion des valeurs humaines communes, à la préservation et à l’innovation des civilisations, ainsi qu’au renforcement des échanges internationaux entre les peuples.

Dans le monde d’aujourd’hui, où règnent incertitudes, bouleversements et divisions, l’Initiative est plus que jamais d’actualité.

Face à la montée des tendances antimondialisation, Elias Jabbour, professeur à la faculté des sciences économiques de l’université d’État de Rio de Janeiro, a souligné l’importance croissante de l’ICM. Selon lui, l’approche inclusive de la Chine en matière de diversité constitue un exemple pour le monde entier. À l’heure où certaines nations autoproclamées « civilisées » procèdent à des déportations et à des rapatriements massifs, l’accent mis par la Chine sur le respect mutuel et les échanges culturels contraste fortement avec le contexte actuel, a déclaré le professeur, tout en saluant l’ambition de l’ICM visant à promouvoir la coexistence de plusieurs civilisations sans imposer les valeurs d’une nation à une autre.

Orienter le monde vers la paix

Lorsque Xi Jinping a proposé l’ICM à l’occasion de la réunion de haut niveau du PCC en dialogue avec les partis politiques mondiaux en mars 2023, il a cité un proverbe chinois : « Une seule fleur ne fait pas le printemps, alors que cent fleurs épanouies apportent le printemps au jardin », afin de souligner la vitalité de la diversité culturelle et la nécessité d’accueillir une multitude de civilisations pour bâtir un monde harmonieux.

« Les nations se doivent de défendre les principes d’égalité, d’apprentissage mutuel, de dialogue et d’inclusion entre les civilisations. Elle doivent également faire en sorte que les échanges culturels transcendent l’éloignement, que l’apprentissage mutuel transcende les affrontements et que la coexistence transcende les sentiments de supériorité », a déclaré Xi Jinping.

L’engagement de la Chine en faveur du dialogue entre les civilisations a été reconnu plus tard en juin, lorsque les Nations unies ont adopté une résolution proposée par la Chine, désignant le 10 juin comme la Journée internationale du dialogue entre les civilisations. Un envoyé chinois auprès des Nations unies, Fu Cong, a déclaré que cette Initiative visait à recentrer l’attention mondiale sur le dialogue interculturel à un « moment critique ».

« Si vous regardez tout autour de vous, vous constatez qu’il y a beaucoup de différends, de conflits, voire de guerres. On assiste également à une montée de l’intolérance, de l’extrémisme et du populisme. Tous ces phénomènes trouvent leur origine dans les différences ou le manque de compréhension entre les cultures et les religions », a déclaré M. Cong.

Un sondage du CGTN réalisé auprès de 15 574 personnes dans 40 pays et régions, publié en mars 2023, a révélé que 80,3 % des personnes interrogées considéraient que la présence de plusieurs civilisations était bénéfique au développement mondial ; 85 % croient en la construction d’un avenir commun grâce à la tolérance et à la coopération, tandis que 89,6 % appellent à davantage de dialogue et d’ouverture, ce chiffre atteignant 93,7 % dans les pays en voie de développement.

Les actes en disent plus long que les paroles

La Chine n’est pas seulement un défenseur, mais aussi un véritable architecte de l’avenir.

En novembre 2023, Pékin a accueilli la première Conférence mondiale sur les civilisations classiques, au cours de laquelle plus de 400 experts se sont engagés dans des discussions concernant les civilisations classiques. Cette conférence a été l’occasion d’encourager les nations à puiser leur sagesse dans les traditions anciennes, afin de favoriser une meilleure compréhension mutuelle. Depuis lors, la Chine a organisé des forums internationaux tels que le Forum Nishan sur les civilisations mondiales et la Conférence internationale sur la langue chinoise, qui réunissent des universitaires, des décideurs politiques et des experts culturels afin d’analyser les valeurs communes.

La préservation de la culture constitue l’un des principaux aspects de l’engagement de la Chine en faveur de l’Initiative. L’Axe central de Pékin, un complexe architectural historique datant de la dynastie Yuan (1271–1368), a été officiellement inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO en 2024. La même année, la Fête du Printemps chinois a été ajoutée à la liste représentative du patrimoine culturel immatériel de l’humanité de l’UNESCO. Ces étapes témoignent de la volonté de la Chine de sauvegarder et de promouvoir son riche patrimoine culturel sur la scène internationale.

Le pays a activement exploré et promu des éléments de la culture chinoise traditionnelle, dévoilant tout son charme sur la scène internationale. Que ce soit le film d’animation Ne Zha 2 qui arrive en tête du box-office mondial des films d’animation, le jeu vidéo Black Myth: Wukong qui gagne en popularité internationale ou le spectacle de danse dramatique Wing Chun qui connaît un succès retentissant sur les scènes étrangères, la Chine ne cesse d’innover en matière de patrimoine culturel.

Elle s’efforce également de renforcer les échanges entre les peuples. Au cours de l’année écoulée, des groupes d’étudiants de villes telles que Dallas, Houston, New York et San Francisco se sont rendus en Chine pour visiter des universités, des entreprises et des sites emblématiques, conformément à l’engagement pris par le président Xi Jinping en 2023 d’inviter 50 000 étudiants sur une période de cinq ans. Afin de promouvoir les échanges culturels, la Chine a coorganisé, ces dernières années, des « années du tourisme » avec plusieurs pays. À la fin de l’année 2024, la Chine avait étendu sa politique d’exemption de visa à 29 pays, dont la France, l’Allemagne et l’Italie, facilitant ainsi l’établissement de nouvelles relations mondiales.

CGTN: Two years on, China’s Global Civilization Initiative gains greater relevance in a turbulent world

CGTN published an article on the second anniversary of China’s Global Civilization Initiative proposed by Chinese President Xi Jinping, which has become more relevant than ever amid uncertainty, turbulence and division in current times. Through introducing China’s efforts to practice the initiative and insights provided by experts and scholars, the article emphasized that China’s respect for the diversity of civilizations makes the country an important role model for promoting world peace and stability.

BEIJING, March 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Two years ago, Chinese President Xi Jinping introduced the Global Civilization Initiative (GCI), calling for respect for cultural diversity, the promotion of common human values, the preservation and innovation of civilizations, and stronger international people-to-people exchanges.

In today’s world, the initiative has become more relevant than ever amid uncertainty, turbulence, and division.

Facing rising anti-globalization trends, Elias Jabbour, a professor at the State University of Rio de Janeiro’s Faculty of Economic Sciences, highlighted the growing significance of GCI. He said China’s inclusive approach to diversity sets an example for the world. At a time when some self-proclaimed “civilized” nations are enforcing mass deportations and repatriations, China’s emphasis on mutual respect and cultural exchange stands in sharp contrast, the professor said, while commending the GCI for championing the coexistence of diverse civilizations without imposing one nation’s values on another.

Guiding the world toward peace

When Xi proposed GCI at the CPC in Dialogue with World Political Parties High-Level Meeting in March 2023, he quoted a Chinese proverb: “A single flower does not make spring, while one hundred flowers in full blossom bring spring to the garden” to indicate the vitality of cultural diversity and the necessity of embracing multiple civilizations in building a harmonious world.

“Countries need to uphold the principles of equality, mutual learning, dialogue and inclusiveness among civilizations, and let cultural exchanges transcend estrangement, mutual learning transcends clashes, and coexistence transcend feelings of superiority,” said Xi.

China’s commitment to civilization dialogue was recognized later in June when the UN adopted a resolution proposed by China, designating June 10 as the International Day for Dialogue among Civilizations. Chinese envoy to the UN, Fu Cong, stated that this initiative sought to refocus global attention on intercultural dialogue at a “critical juncture.”

“If you look around the world, you see a lot of disputes, a lot of conflicts or even wars. And also, there is a surge of intolerance, extremism and also populism. All these can find their roots in the differences or the lack of understanding among cultures and religions,” Fu said.

A CGTN poll of 15,574 people across 40 countries and regions, published in March 2023, found that 80.3 percent see multiple civilizations as beneficial to global development, 85 percent believe in building a shared future through tolerance and cooperation, while 89.6 percent call for greater dialogue and openness, rising to 93.7 percent in developing countries.

Actions speak louder than words

China is not just an advocate, but also a true practitioner.

In November 2023, Beijing hosted the first World Conference of Classics, where over 400 experts engaged in discussions on classical civilizations. The conference was a platform to encourage nations to draw wisdom from ancient traditions, fostering greater mutual understanding. Since then, China has organized international forums such as the Nishan Forum on World Civilizations and the International Chinese Language Conference, which bring together scholars, policymakers, and cultural experts to explore shared values.

Cultural preservation is one of the main aspects of China’s commitment to the initiative. The Beijing Central Axis, a historic architectural complex dating back to the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368), was officially inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2024. The same year, the Chinese Spring Festival was added to UNESCO’s Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. These milestones underscore China’s dedication to safeguarding and promoting its rich cultural legacy on the global stage.

The country has been actively exploring and promoting elements of traditional Chinese culture, bringing its charm to the global stage. From the animated film Ne Zha 2 topping the global box office for animated films, to the video game Black Myth: Wukong gaining international popularity, and the dance drama Wing Chun becoming a smash hit in overseas markets, China is continuously innovating its cultural heritage.

It has also made efforts to strengthen people-to-people exchanges. Over the past year, student groups from cities such as Dallas, Houston, New York, and San Francisco have traveled to China to visit universities, companies, and iconic landmarks, following President Xi’s 2023 pledge to invite 50,000 students over five years. In recent years, China has co-hosted “Tourism Years” with multiple countries to promote cultural exchange. By the end of 2024, China had expanded its visa-free entry policy to 29 countries, including France, Germany and Italy, facilitating greater global connections.

LUSAKA, Zambia, March 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AgDevCo is pleased to announce its successful exit from Saise Farming Enterprises Limited, through an equity sale to Buya Bamba Limited, a leading Zambian potato company.

Saise was established in 2016 as a specialised potato seed farm between AgDevCo, Buya Bamba and its managing partners.

With 285 hectares under irrigation in Mbala, Northern Zambia, Saise’s seed potatoes are multiplied by a network of growers, reaching a large portion of the country’s potato farmers. The farm has been instrumental in improving seed availability, enhancing yields, and enabling a reliable local source of excellent quality potato seed for Zambia. Additionally, Saise has created much-needed formal employment in Northern Zambia.
