The Ambassador Year in China Programme is thrilled to have been invited to contribute to the University of Lincoln's 'Teaching and Education Week' with several workshops on East Asian cultures, plus one-to-one consultations for students on 27th February. We would like to take this opportunity to thank the outstanding team at the University of Lincoln, very warmly, for inviting us to be part of this. It will be a delight and privilege to return to Lincoln for our third Ambassador Year in China event there.
