cqvip:IN preparing for the Beijing Olympics,the goal has been to create a quality event with a strong Chinese flavor that will showcase the nation s history and culture to the world.As well as a sports meeting,the Beijing Olympic Games will be a diverse cultural pageant.The organizers are striving for the highest level of quality in all aspects of the Games,including the opening and closing ceremonies,media services,security,cultural events,and the organization of Beijing’s infrastructure. The Beijing Olympic Games have been planned un- der the auspices of three overarching concepts:a green Olympics,a sci-tech Olympics,and a people-orientated Olympics.In practice this has meant ensuring sustainable development in the construction of venues and support- ing services,utilizing the latest and most advanced tech- nologies and promoting innovation,and upholding and enhancing the well-being and interests of people. The opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympic Games will strive to realize the spirit of"One World,One Dream"by emphasizing the themes of"civi- lization"and"harmony."They will trace the evolution of Chinese civilization and its blending with the outside world,realizing a perfect combination of Chinese cultur- al and Olympic elements. The Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games of the XXIX Olympiad (BO- COG) has organized five Olympic cultural festivals to further the Olympic spirit. We have also organized publicity activities,such as a global tour of the Fuwa mas- cots,and an Olympic family tour of Beijing,to enhance foreigners’ understanding of China and the Beijing Olympic Games.Cooperating with the Chinese Minis- try of Education,we have established 556 Olympic education teachers’ schools. Meanwhile,we have organized 207 primary and middle schools in Beijing to con- duct international exchanges,to strengthen mutual understanding and friendship between Chinese young people and their counterparts from around the world.
