Having achieved a high level of educational cooperation after the development of diplomatic relations between the two countries, there is huge potential in cultural exchange and resource sharing in design arts. The Hainan Free Trade Portwith its policy openness and unique geographic position has become a forum of cultural interchange between China and the rest of the world. Not only does it act as a testing ground in the dismantling of barriers in design education and resource sharing but it is also a driver of educational concept change.
