About Stanford e-China
Wit and Pep Initiative (SWAPI)
关于斯坦福WAPI
Inspired by growing interest in Stanford e-China and SPICE’s mission to promote Stanford scholarship in cross-cultural education, we established Stanford e-China Wit and Pep Initiative (SWAPI). SWAPI aims to encourage young students in China to share ideas and express themselves effectively through public speaking and writing about global challenges and opportunities that demand international collaboration, and to foster cross-cultural understanding.
鉴于斯坦福e-China不断增长的申请数量,以及达成SPICE在跨文化教育中推广斯坦福教育的使命,我们创立了斯坦福WAPI。SWAPI旨在吸引更多中国年轻学生以公开演讲和写作的方式来有效地展现自己的观点,并且推进跨文化的理解与交流,尤其是需要国际合作应对的全球挑战和机遇相关话题。
