Participants list KEYWORDS: Health personnel/Capacity building/Staff development/Regional health planning/China SUMMARY The WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific has developed the Go WHO programme, including Go WHO workshops, as part of the Organization’s response to the issue of underrepresentation of some Member States among WHO staff members. The first Go WHO workshop in China was held on 15 January 2018, co-hosted by the National Health and Family Planning Commission of China and Peking University. More than 200 participants attended and over 16 000 tuned in for the live stream via Weibo. The workshop was delivered in English as this is the primary language of communication in WHO offices in the Western Pacific Region. The workshop involved three key sessions: getting to know WHO, writing your résumé and the written test, and competency-based interviews (theory and practice). Through these sessions, participants were given insights on what WHO looks for in candidates and how to best prepare themselves in terms of building their skills and experience relevant to a career in global health. Participant feedback on the workshop was positive. Social media channels will be used to keep in contact with participants as well as share internship and other opportunities and news with participants. The WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific encourages the Government of the People’s Republic of China to consider the following: exploring options to coordinate with local initiatives to offer participants follow-up opportunities to develop their careers; establishing a more formal internship and volunteer arrangement with the Regional Office; and working with WHO and academic institutions to organize similar workshops in the future. 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background WHO’s human resources policy includes the desirability of recruiting staff from as wide a geographical basis as possible. However, 32% of Member States continue to be either unrepresented or under-represented in the international professional staff category. Member States have urged the WHO Secretariat to put in more effort to address the issue of non/under-representation. There are four under-represented Member States in the Western Pacific Region: China, Japan, the Republic of Korea and Singapore. To respond to this issue, a half-day workshop known as “Go WHO” was initiated in Japan in 2016. Japan’s Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare expressed appreciation of the workshop and the ministers of health of China and the Republic of Korea expressed their interest in similar workshops being convened in their countries. Accordingly, WHO, the National Health and Family Planning Commission (NHFPC) of China and Peking University jointly convened the first Go WHO China workshop on 15 January 2018. The workshop programme is available in Annex 1. The half-day workshop programme was developed jointly by the WHO Representative Office in China and the Country Support Unit and Regional Human Resources Management Unit of the WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific. The programme was modelled on and incorporated lessons from workshops in Japan and the Republic of Korea. 1.2 Workshop objectives The objectives of the workshop were: 1) to raise awareness of the work of WHO and encourage young people to pursue a career in global health; 2) to attract talent from under-represented countries with a large human resource gap; and 3) to coach young professionals in how to prepare should they wish to join WHO. By the end of the workshop, participants were expected: 1) to be familiar with WHO’s core functions and role in international and global health; 2) to be familiar with WHO’s recruitment process and competency model; and 3) to understand how to respond to questions on the written test for WHO vacancies and in the competency-based interview using the STAR (situation, task, action, result) model. 1.3 Participants Attention was paid to appropriate selection and recruitment of applicants and placement in facilitated groups based on each participant’s level of experience and area of expertise. The workshop was announced through social medial platforms (Weibo and WeChat) for a two-week period. The workshop announcement is in Annex 2. Of more than 400 applicants, 200 were selected. A key requirement in selection was submission of a CV and letter of motivation in English. Of the participants selected, the majority were in their 2 twenties, with only 33 being over 30 years old. On the day of the workshop, there were 190 participants, not including the secretariat team of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, Peking University and WHO. In attendance were 143 female (75%) and 47 male participants. Gender and geographical balance were also considered in the selection of the workshop facilitation team. Applicants from across China also participated, with 72 coming from Beijing. The participants list is in Annex 3. A live stream of the workshop was hosted by WHO China on Weibo (available at: https://www.yizhibo.com/l/zayUkh0aY-PGgBa3.html). More than 16 000 people tuned in to the workshop and this number continued to rise as people watched the recording in the following days. To stay in contact with participants after the workshop as well as share internship and consultancy opportunities and global health news, a Weibo group has been created. 2. PROCEEDINGS 2.1 Opening session The workshop was opened by the Dean of the School of Public Health at Peking University, Professor Meng Qingyue, who delivered the welcoming remarks. The Division Director of International Cooperation of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, Ms Zhao Lina, delivered the opening remarks. WHO Regional Emergency Director in the Western Pacific, Dr Li Ailan, then shared a presentation on “Working at WHO: how you can make a career of making a difference, an overview of WHO’s work and objectives”. 2.2 Session 1: Getting to know WHO The first session focused on “Who is needed at WHO?”, specifically the experience required to work at the Organization, the average age of staff and average age of entry. It was noted that the

  • Mirror, Moon, and Memory in Eighth-Century China: from Dragon Pond to Lunar Palace
    EUGENE Y. WANG Mirror, Moon, and Memory in Eighth-Century China: From Dragon Pond to Lunar Palace Why the Flight-to-the-Moon The Bard’s one-time felicitous phrasing of a shrewd observation has by now fossilized into a commonplace: that one may “hold, as ’twere, the mirror up to nature; to show virtue her own feature, scorn her own image, and the very age and body of the time his form and pressure.”1 Likewise deeply rooted in Chinese discourse, the same analogy has endured since antiquity.2 As a commonplace, it is true and does not merit renewed attention. When presented with a physical mirror from the past that does register its time, however, we realize that the mirroring or showing promised by such a wisdom is not something we can take for granted. The mirror does not show its time, at least not in a straightforward way. It in fact veils, disfi gures, and ultimately sublimates the historical reality it purports to refl ect. A case in point is the scene on an eighth-century Chinese mirror (fi g. 1). It shows, at the bottom, a dragon strutting or prancing over a pond. A pair of birds, each holding a knot of ribbon in its beak, fl ies toward a small sphere at the top. Inside the circle is a tree fl anked by a hare on the left and a toad on the right. So, what is the design all about? A quick iconographic exposition seems to be in order. To begin, the small sphere refers to the moon.

By declining atrade-off between propagation length and light confinement, high quality hybrid modes which can travel a long range of 120–200휆 with a subwavelength effective radius are obtained at the optical wavelength.

  • The History and Context of Chinese-Western Intercultural Marriage in Modern and Contemporary China (From 1840 to the 21St Century)
    The History And Context Of Chinese-Western Intercultural Marriage In Modern And Contemporary China (From 1840 To The 21st Century) Australian wife Margaret and her Chinese husband Quong Tart and their three eldest children, 1894. Source: Tart McEvoy papers, Society of Australian Genealogists 1.1 Brief Introduction It is now becoming more and more common to see Chinese-Western intercultural couples in China and other countries. In the era of the global village, intercultural marriage between different races and nationalities is frequent. It brings happiness, but also sorrow, as there are both understandings and misunderstandings, as well as conflicts and integrations. With the reform of China and the continuous development, and improvement of China’s reputation internationally, many aspects of intercultural marriage have changed from ancient to contemporary times in China. Although marriage is a very private affair for the individuals who participate in it, it also reflects and connects with many complex factors such as economic development, culture differences, political backgrounds and transition of traditions, in both China and the Western world. As a result, an ordinary marriage between a Chinese person and a Westerner is actually an episode in a sociological grand narrative. This paper reviews the history of Chinese-Western marriage in modern China from 1840 to 1949, and it reveals the history of the earliest Chinese marriages to Westerners at the beginning of China’s opening up. More Chinese men married Western wives at first, while later unions between Chinese wives and Western husbands outnumbered these. Four types of CWIMs in modern China were studied. Both Western and Chinese governments’ policies and attitudes towards Chinese-Western marriages in this period were also studied.

  • Tao Yuanming's Perspectives on Life As Reflected in His Poems on History
    Journal of chinese humanities 6 (2020) 235–258 brill.com/joch Tao Yuanming’s Perspectives on Life as Reflected in His Poems on History Zhang Yue 張月 Associate Professor of Department of Chinese Language and Literature, University of Macau, Taipa, Macau, China [email protected] Abstract Studies on Tao Yuanming have often focused on his personality, reclusive life, and pas- toral poetry. However, Tao’s extant oeuvre includes a large number of poems on history. This article aims to complement current scholarship by exploring his viewpoints on life through a close reading of his poems on history. His poems on history are a key to Tao’s perspectives with regard to the factors that decide a successful political career, the best way to cope with difficulties and frustrations, and the situations in which literati should withdraw from public life. Examining his positions reveals the connec- tions between these different aspects. These poems express Tao’s perspectives on life, as informed by his historical predecessors and philosophical beliefs, and as developed through his own life experience and efforts at poetic composition. Keywords Tao Yuanming – poems on history – perspectives on life Tao Yuanming 陶淵明 [ca. 365–427], a native of Xunyang 潯陽 (contem- porary Jiujiang 九江, Jiangxi), is one of the best-known and most-studied Chinese poets from before the Tang [618–907]. His extant corpus, comprising 125 poems and 12 prose works, is one of the few complete collections to survive from early medieval China, largely thanks to Xiao Tong 蕭統 [501–531], a prince of the Liang dynasty [502–557], who collected Tao’s works, wrote a preface, and © ZHANG YUE, 2021 | doi:10.1163/23521341-12340102 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC BY 4.0Downloaded license.
