Zhang Ming pointed out that young people are the hope of the SCO, and it can be said that "if the youth is prosperous, the Shanghai will prosper." That is why the leaders of the Member States of the Organization have always been concerned about the growth and development of young people. Today's "Tiangong Dialogue" activity is to inspire the young generation to pursue their dreams.

He promised that the SCO Secretariat will continue to build a platform and create conditions for countries in the region to carry out various friendly exchange activities.
