In recent years, Guangxi has stepped up the exchange on science popularization among youths with ASEAN countries, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and successfully held the 3rd Belt and Road Teenager Maker Camp and Teacher Workshop, Guangxi Adolescent Robot Competition and ASEAN & Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Adolescent Robotic Invitational Competition, Guangxi Adolescent Science Festival and ASEAN Adolescent Science and Technology Exchange. Through such efforts, the province has built an international exchange platform for science and technology, education and culture among young people.

By giving full play to the role of the exchange center, the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Science and Technology Association and Guangxi Science and Technology Museum continue to build a high-end international science and technology exchange platform that is based in Guangxi, oriented to ASEAN countries, and covers countries along the Belt and Road, so as to make greater contributions to global exchange on science popularization.
