The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics organizing committee introduced the Games' official slogan "Together for a Shared Future" to the world on Sept 17, calling on mankind to stay united in harmony in the face of common challenges to come.

As China's State Council reports, the five-word slogan, together with its Chinese version, was unveiled during a ceremony at Beijing Capital Museum with 140 days to go before the 2022 Winter Olympics open in the Chinese capital on Feb 4.

It is noted that the final version of the motto drew inspiration from 11 proposals entering the final round of review from individual submissions, creative teams from colleges and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences since a call for ideas was launched in May 2020.

The Beijing 2022 slogan impressed the International Olympic Committee and the International Paralympic Committee for complying with the newly updated Olympic motto "Faster, Higher, Stronger－Together", said Olympic promoters.

"Beijing 2022's slogan boasts a strong appeal to the world nowadays that all mankind has only one future, a shared one," said Jiang Xiaoyu, vice-president of Beijing Olympic City Development Association. "So the solution for creating a better world is simple and clear that we should push in one direction, which was embodied by the slogan."

The Games motto will be displayed－in English and Chinese－at all Games venues, on city street decorations and licensed goods to promote the value of the Olympic spirit as well as Beijing's vision of hosting the Games in an open and shared manner.
