In May 2018, under the guidance of UNESCO, the Belt and Road Forum for Literature and International Youth Forum on Creativity and Heritage along the Silk Roads both took place during the Nanjing Historical and Cultural City Expo. Present at the forum was the Ethiopian youth representative Hannah Getachew who was nominated to write to President Xi on behalf of the youth ambassadors of the 40 countries in attendance. She received a kind and encouraging reply from the President, welcoming further exchange and cooperation in the future.
