Inner Mongolia Normal University will spare no effort to support this institute and to push research on ethnology and anthropology, said Yun Guohong, president of Inner Mongolia Normal University.
The institute aims to provide advice and intelligent support for the autonomous region's policy-making and to develop think-tanks in ethnology and anthropology studies.
"The Belt and Road Initiative and the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor have brought new opportunities for Inner Mongolia, as an important northward bridgehead of China," said Yun, "but also brought new tasks and topics for our ethnology and anthropology research," he added.
