Zhang Hui, Vice President of the Jiangsu Chinese Federation in Canada, has played an active role in promoting people-to-people exchange by assisting tens of thousands of Jiangsu students to pursue further education around the world.
“I am a native of Nanjing, born at the foot of Zijin Mountain and by the bank of Xuanwu Lake. My hometown has nurtured me, and Nanjing gives me the feeling of being a very tolerant city. Its culture has also educated me,” said Zhang Hui, Vice President of the Jiangsu Chinese Federation in Canada.
Zhang Hui, who loves tourism and photography, has traveled to over 30 countries since graduating from Nanjing University in 2001. Fifteen years ago, she chose to settle her home in Vancouver, Canada.
Due to her long-term work in education and talent exchange, her friends often consulted her about their children's opportunities to study abroad, which gradually prompted her to start up her entrepreneurial business.
In 2009, she returned to Nanjing and founded a study-abroad information consulting company. With years of education experience abroad, she provides local children with one-stop, global, and high-quality study abroad guidance services. As of now, she has successfully sent tens of thousands of Jiangsu students to well-known foreign institutions in Canada and some other countries for further education.
“I want to make my career more refined and able to serve more families and children. I hope that through my own efforts, I can build a bond and bridge between China and Canada in education by helping more outstanding students in Jiangsu to have the opportunity to learn more advanced cultural knowledge so that they can return to Jiangsu, and make greater contributions to their hometown,” said Zhang.
In 2019, Zhang Hui took on the position of Vice President of the Jiangsu Chinese Federation in Canada, and began to devote herself to promoting excellent Chinese culture.
In 2020, with the global spread of the COVID-19, Zhang Hui worked hard to help overseas students return to China, and at the same time cooperated with Jiangsu people in Canada to raise and purchase millions of yuan of epidemic prevention materials for their hometown.
“I would like to take the Jiangsu Development Summit as a platform to call on the government to introduce more policy guidance or support, promote industry university research, cooperation and exchange, attract more outstanding overseas students to return to China for development or carry out more talent cultivation and exchange programs, and give full play to the advanced industries overseas to promote the development of Jiangsu,” said Zhang.
