The celebration was hosted at different venues in Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Xi'an, Lijiang, Taipei and Malaysia. Due to the Covid restrictions, members in Hong Kong and Singapore joined online at home instead of gathering together.
Several international friends of SDC, including Simon Jones, seniors adviser of Chime Group; Paul Clarke, co-founder and president of Pop-up Foundation; Alwin van der Linde, renowned artist and president of Fundación VanderLinde; and Joe Ross, poet and strategic analyst have sent their best wishes to SDC members through video messages, as well as sharing their recent achievements in sustainable practices.
Reunion online
Local venues in different cities carried out various thematic activities and shared their thoughts online one by one, reflecting on the history of SDC, development of the eco-projects, approaches to build a platform for youth innovation and entrepreneurship, strategies of green business and sustainable art, providing the members with a great opportunity to learn from each other and to think out of the box.
The gathering closed with the flow of love highlighted by a warm music everyone sang together, which broke through the geographical barriers and created strong connection for co-creation.
