Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 21. Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, wrote back to representatives of academicians and experts of “Science and China” on July 20, raising ardent expectations for scientific and technological workers to support and participate in science popularization.

In his reply, Xi Jinping said that over the years, you have actively participated in the “Science and China” lecture tour, widely disseminated scientific knowledge, carried forward the scientific spirit, and played a very good role in promoting the popularization of science.

Xi Jinping pointed out that the popularization of science is an important basic work for realizing innovation and development. I hope you will continue to carry forward the glorious tradition of serving the country through science, drive more scientific and technological workers to support and participate in science popularization, and use high-quality and rich content and popular forms to stimulate young people’s interest in advocating science and exploring the unknown, promote the improvement of the scientific literacy of the whole people, and continue to make new contributions to the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and the promotion of Chinese-style modernization.

In December 2002, at the initiative of Zhou Guangzhao, Lu Yongxiang and other academicians and experts, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with the Central Propaganda Department and other units, jointly launched the “Science and China” academician and expert lecture tour. So far, more than 2,000 science popularization activities have been carried out across the country. Recently, 20 representatives of academicians and experts who initiated and participated in the “Science and China” lecture tour wrote a letter to General Secretary Xi Jinping, reporting the achievements made since the tour tour, and proposed to launch the “Thousand Academicians · Thousand Science Popularization” campaign to gather the strength of the academician and expert groups and make greater contributions to strengthening the national science popularization capacity and accelerating the realization of high-level scientific and technological self-reliance and self-improvement.
