On the path of education, the Olympics, through the medium of sports, is committed to cultivating people's qualities such as courage, determination, perseverance, and fair play, which are integrated and interconnected with the cultivation of noble character in traditional Chinese education. These commonalities demonstrate how the Olympic ideal transcends cultural boundaries and finds resonance in different philosophical and ethical traditions around the world.
