It aims to ensure the preservation and development of traditional Chinese medicine, and contribute towards building a healthy China. It is also important in helping to create a Silk Road of Health and a global community of health for all.

With the theme of "Inheritance, Innovation, Mutual Learning and Shared Benefits", this forum will be held both online and offline for the first time, including visits to local TCM bases, an opening ceremony, plenary meetings and sub-forums.

The event is sponsored by the Good Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation Committee of the SCO, the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Jiangxi provincial government.

Jiangxi has a long history of TCM. The time-honored "Xinglin Culture" that originated in the province's Jiujiang city, has become an important symbol of TCM. Jiangxi is expected to benefit from the forum, achieving deeper-level and higher-quality developments in this sector, both theoretically and in reality.
