Global Vision Mission To China & Malaysia Shaping Up

From August 2nd-14th Global Vision and Junior Team Canada will be present in the People's Republic of China, to underscore the increasingly close ties between Canada and China.  Further, this trade mission will be used as a spring board for even greater youth exchange between Canada and China.

The Global Vision Trade Mission will visit a plethora of cities; Beijing, Kunming, Chongqing, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong.  The full team arrives in Beijing for the opening days of the trade mission.  After this, they will fan out across the country to build ties in a variety of different regions.  Partners All China Youth Federation and the Chinese Embassy in Ottawa are working hard with Global Vision to ensure a top of the line program.

Global Vision has just returned from hosting the G8 and G20 Youth Summits.  150 youth from around the world came to take part in the event, which Global Vision was asked to host by Prime Minister Stephen Harper.  Among the major highlights for the Global Vision team was meeting The President of the People's Republic of China, Hu Jintao.
