China Media Centre
Connecting the creative and culture industries in China and the UK
连结中英两国文化创意产业的纽带
The China Media Centre is based in the Communications and Media Research Institute of the University of Westminster, the United Kingdom’s leading research unit for media. It was launched in 2005 by Sun Yusheng, Vice-President of China Central Television, and Jeremy Paxman, Presenter of BBC Newsnight, in 2005.
The Centre marks the University’s commitment to the understanding of China, and to extending our international research on the media. China is daily more influential in the world, economically, politically and culturally. Its media have played important parts in the extraordinary changes that have taken place within China since 1978 and are now establishing themselves around the world, as China’s eyes and voice.
The University of Westminster’s involvement with China goes back more than half a century. The first institution to specialise in modern spoken Chinese, we taught generations of diplomats about China while welcoming students and visiting researchers from Xinhua News Agency, China Central Television, the Peoples' Daily and other leading Chinese media.
Today the China Media Centre connects the Chinese and European media in three ways: scholarship, dialogue and professional exchanges.
We undertakeresearch that contributes to understanding of the world’s largest media system including both team projects and individual publications; a regular series of seminars, workshops, annual conferences, debates and innovative curricular development, both independently and in collaboration with other centres and departments of the University and with practitioners and scholars in China.
We offer a forum in Britain promoting dialogue on the different media systemsand networks into the information channels of the Chinese government.We provide consultancy to leading Chinese media organizations and are contracted by European governments projecting their media in China.
Finally we are the focus for large numbers of Chinese visiting scholars, practitioners and students who are working, or will work in the world’s largest media system and for whom their first experience of abroad is London and the China Media Centre.
