In order to encourage domestic universities and civil organizations to provide voluntary services at overseas Chinese schools in Southeast Asia, and to broaden the international perspectives of our youth, we have formulated this plan. Additionally, to establish long-term communication channels between domestic youth volunteer teams and overseas Chinese schools and allow volunteers to have a better understanding of the current situation at the schools and adjust the service content accordingly, this plan allows volunteer teams to independently contact and negotiate with the Chinese schools mentioned in our announcement, and after confirming the service arrangements, they can apply to our organization for funding support.
