As an integral part of the second China-Russia New Media Forum, the China-Russia • Youth Collaboration aims to conduct academic exchanges and promote creative program cooperation among youths from China and Russia.

On September 14, five participants gathered at China Daily headquarters in Beijing to take part in the send-off party ahead of the China-Russia • Youth Collaboration.

The upcoming event, which begins on September 16, will be held in Rostov-on-Don, the biggest city in southern Russia.

A total of 17 top minds have been selected to participate in the event, and they will exchange ideas on topics such as new trends in the internet, network security and new media technology during the eight-day activity.

Five Chinese college students - Wei Danyang from Peking University; Lan Juxin form Communication University of China; Wu Yuhong from Jinan University; Jiang Jie from Guangdong University of Foreign Studies; and Zhao Zijian from Tianjin Normal University - will take part in the brainstorming sessions there.

One of the highlights of the event will be students working as a team and jointly producing a video clip on the Don River and its culture. Also, the Sino-Russian electronic sports show will demonstrate the competitive and cooperative features in online media.
