Oriental Culture Educational Society
We are a multicultural learning organisation that works to raise more comprehensive awareness of the rich heritage of Chinese culture and its positive contribution to the lives of Western people living in Dorset and the Bournemouth-Poole area. At a broader level, through our online and in-the-community work and activities, enthusiastically promote multicultural learning / multicultural integration and the development of an Inclusive society in our local community.
Our principle aims and activities focus upon providing Chinese culture learning resources / services (including exhibitions and talks, and videos) and a unique online public services information resource (公共服務指南) in Chinese that enables new and existing Dorset Chinese residents (including Chinese / Far Eastern international Bournemouth University and language college students) to better access those important services.
We work closely with and are supported by all of the public services (including the local councils, the Race Equality Council, Dorset Police, and especially the NHS) to better enhance the quality of life of All Dorset residents, and in particular those Chinese members of our local community who may on occasion encounter linguistic and cultural acclimatisation issues and challenges. We also work closely with higher education establishments such as Bournemouth University.
To learn more about our events and activities during the October 2010 - June 2011 period please view out OCES Powerpoint news overview.
We are a politics-free charitable not-for-profit organisation, founded upon and deeply committed to inclusive and anti-discrimination values and perspectives. We offer a very warm welcome for all who share these values and perspectives to join us and contribute to our multicultural integration and cross-cultural bridging work / activities in our community, and also online!
