To tell engaging stories about Beijing and make its voice heard, the  Translation and Interpretation Center of Beijing Foreign Affairs Office,  in collaboration with China Academy for Public Policy  Translation of Beijing International Studies University, has initiated a  series titled “Understand Beijing: One Key Phrase a Day”. From this  year’s Beijing Government Work Report, thirty seven trending policy  buzzwords have been selected. Their elucidation,along with the official  translation,is now being published to highlight the significant measures  Beijing has undertaken in pursuit of high-quality development and the  resultant achievements. Through this series, we aim to foster a deeper  understanding of our city among foreign institutions and nationals in  Beijing.

Paired school  partnership program for compulsory education schools (or One-to-One  School Partnership Program for compulsory education)
This refers to a program announced by the Beijing Municipal Education  Commission, as it released the Work Plan on Paired Partnerships Between  Compulsory Education Schools in Main Urban Districts and Rural  Townships in October 2023. This program includes all the compulsory  education schools across the city's townships, coordinating partnerships  between 365 pairs of schools. Activities in the plan  include fostering student peer partnerships in the matched schools and  organizing exchange visits and collaborative educational programs for  students, thus facilitating a steady flow of high caliber educational  resources between urban and rural schools. The program also facilitates  faculty and staff exchanges and rotations, with dedicated job  shadowing and learning opportunities, thereby helping enhance their  teaching and mentorship skills for better educational outcomes.
