Beijing Foreign Studies University recently announced that it has established a Public Diplomacy Research Center during a press conference in Beijing on Aug. 26. This is China's first institution to specialize in public diplomacy research and its establishment will promote China's public diplomacy research to provide intellectual support for the practice of the government's public diplomacy and a platform for the public to participate in public diplomacy.

The rapid rise of China and changes in the international structure and the international situation has brought new challenges to China's diplomacy. Compared with the traditional government's diplomacy, public diplomacy has become the main battlefield of governments to enhance their soft power and expand their influence.

President Hu Jintao pointed out in July 2009 that the implementation of public diplomacy is directly related to China's image. It is also the objective requirement for China to improve its diplomatic pattern under the new situation and an important development direction for China's diplomatic work. As public diplomacy has become an important new field of China's current diplomatic work, it has attracted general attention from the government and society.
