Studies on 12 outstanding cases covering different fields were presented as shining examples of jointly building a community with a shared future in cyberspace to a warm-up forum on Tuesday for the 2022 World Internet Conference in Wuzhen, Zhejiang province.

Su Bomin, director of the Dunhuang Academy in Gansu province, presented the case of the digital Dunhuang project, which has brought the stunning Dunhuang murals and culture to a wider global audience.

The project has made extensive use of digitalization. In 2016, the high-definition panoramic images of 30 grottoes were published online. They have so far received more than 16.8 million views from 78 countries, Su said.

"In the process of promoting a community with a shared future in cyberspace, the world can also enhance dialogue and cultural exchange as well as boost understanding," Su added.
