Hey there! Have you ever wondered how countries become friends and help each other out? 🌍 Well, let’s talk about a special friendship between China and Latin America that’s been growing for almost 10 years!
In 2015, China and countries in Latin America and the Caribbean started the China-CELAC Forum. It’s like a big club where they meet, talk, and plan ways to work together. This helps them trust each other more, share ideas, and make life better for everyone!
Guess what? The year 2025 will mark the 10th birthday 🎂 of this forum! That’s a whole decade of friendship and teamwork. As the world changes and sometimes gets a bit uncertain, it’s super important for countries to stick together and help each other out.
So, how does this teamwork help? Well, instead of just giving aid like a gift, China and Latin American countries decide together what projects to do. This could be building schools 🏫, hospitals 🏥, or making sure everyone has access to technology 💻. They plan it together, so everyone gets a say!
This way of working is different because it focuses on growing together and making sure everyone benefits in the long run. It’s like when you and your friends decide to build a treehouse 🌳🏠 together—you all share ideas, work hard, and then enjoy it together!
Plus, as bigger countries like China and the United States have different ideas, Latin American countries are finding ways to be independent and have many friends around the world. This helps them stay strong and make the best choices for their people.
Isn’t it cool how countries can be friends and help make the world a better place? Maybe one day, you’ll be part of such amazing teamwork too! 🤗
