China Youth Daily:

We know that the CPC has always attached great importance to the study and education of Party history for young people and emphasized the need to make good use of red resources and inherit the red gene. I want to know what the Party history and literature department does in terms of promoting the Party history learning and education targeting young people. Thank you.

Qu Qingshan:

Mr. Liu Ronggang, please take this question.

Liu Ronggang:

Thank you for your question. Young people are the future of China and the hope of the nation. General Secretary Xi Jinping has stressed that we should make great efforts in educating the young people, focus on telling stories about the Party, revolution and heroes, and deeply cultivate love for the Party, the country and socialism, so that the traditions of revolution and the spirit of patriotism can be passed on from one generation to the next. Party history is the most vivid and convincing textbook and it is also an important vehicle to pass down the Party's revolution traditions and bloodline. Carrying out in-depth Party history learning and education through various forms is an important way to pass down the Party's revolution traditions and bloodline. The Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee attaches great importance to young people's Party history education, adapting it to the cognitive characteristics of young people, and continues to promote innovation in its content, form, and methodology. Here, we have mainly done the following types of work:

First, we provided rich resources for young people to carry out Party history learning through careful arrangement. The Institute of Party History and Literature of the CPC Central Committee, in cooperation with the Ministry of Education, the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, China Central Television, China Education Television, and other units, compiled textbooks about the "Four Histories" (CPC history, the People's Republic of China history, the history of China's reform and opening-up, and the history of China's socialist development) for the students of the country's universities, colleges, and middle and elementary schools. We also organized a nationwide Party history knowledge competition and a red stories telling national competition among college students, produced "The Flag—Voices from Chinese Youth" and other columns, and carried out themed education campaign "Learning Party History Through Films, Speaking to the Party from the Bottom of Hearts," which provided strong support for the smooth implementation of Party history education for young people.

Second, we are digging deeper into red education resources, popularizing knowledge of the Party history, and enhancing the effectiveness of the Party history education for young people. The central and local Party history and literature departments took the initiative to organize and carry out Party history publicity and education activities for young people, such as opening a study column and holding the "Lesson One" course for elementary and middle school students. We launched a "Party History Story Library" for young people through new media platforms, created artworks on the subject of Party history. Through various forms, we guided young people to relive the glorious course of the CPC and inherit the great revolutionary spirit.

Third, we innovated educational methods to give play to the important role of the internet in young people's study and education of Party history. Just now, Mr. Qu Qingshan introduced some examples. The Institute of Party History and Literature has launched an 11-episode micro-documentary series entitled "'Eleven Writings' that Witness Original Aspirations and Missions," a 100-episode micro-documentary series "A Will of Iron," and the large-scale original column "Daily Readings: A Hundred Years of CPC History," among other multimedia products. They were adapted to the form and requirements of new media communication, thus received a strong response from young people.

For a long time, we have been conscientiously organizing and doing our best to improve the pertinence and effectiveness of the Party history education for young people, so that they can feel the Party's great journey and brilliant achievements more closely. We will sum up our good experiences and practices in a timely manner, play a greater role in the Party history education among young people, and contribute to the inheritance of the Party's revolution traditions and the cultivation of the next generation of socialist builders and successors. Thank you.
