China plans to establish a national community education network by 2020 through 200 demonstration¹ areas with exemplary practices and 600 others to test relevant practices, the Ministry² of Education (MOE) announced.

教育部日前宣布，到2020年，我国计划建立200个社区教育示范区、600个社区教育实验区，从而形成社区教育治理体系。

Community education should be richer in content and more diversified³ in its forms, and resident participation⁴ and their approval of such schools should increase remarkably⁵ in the next five years, according to a guideline to promote community education issued by the MOE with other departments.

根据教育部联合其他部门印发的《关于进一步推进社区教育发展的意见》，未来5年内，社区教育的内容形式会更加丰富，居民参与率和满意度会显著提高。

The guideline also called for better service capacity, pooling and sharing of educational resources.

该意见提倡提高服务能力，融通共享教育资源。

It encouraged schools to offer community schooling⁶ by capitalizing on their existing facilities, courses and teachers. Schools are required to open more resources to the public, such as libraries, museums, gymnasiums and exhibition halls.

它还鼓励学校利用现有场地设施、课程资源、师资提供社区教育，并要求学校提高图书馆、博物馆、体育场馆、展览厅等资源面向公众的开放水平。

The guideline asked localities to establish a cost-sharing mechanism⁷ to raise money for community education through government input⁸, private endowment, tuition and others.

此外，该意见还要求各地建立政府投入、社会捐赠、学习者分担等多种渠道筹措社区教育经费的费用分担机制。
