As in the past, the SSFS invites experts and scholars from the South and the North to meet and brainstorm to foster collective wisdom from Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The title of this year's Forum is “Health and the Road to Sustainability”. How can humanity
live in peace in a century of great changes? In today’s world, peace is being undermined, pandemics are not receding, and the climate is rapidly and drastically changing ...... Is humanity at the crossroads again? Where are we heading? Can an individual’s
pursuit of physical and mental health, and society’s quest for peace, be guaranteed? How can there be sustainability?</div>

We have three themes for in-depth discussion at the SSFS11. Theme 1: Cultural Traditions, Physical and Mental Health, and Sustainability. Taking Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and the art of painting and calligraphy as examples, we will discuss how, under
the collision of Eastern and Western cultures, the Chinese cultural tradition with the unity of heaven and humans can innovate, but also maintain its fundamental principles.</div>
