Abstract: A notion that relates to the sharing of art, information, ideas, and other aspects of culture between countries and their people in order to enhance and expand mutual understanding is referred to as cultural diplomacy. Increasing the amount of contact that occurs between different populations and fostering the development of trust between countries via cooperation and collaboration are two examples that demonstrate the significance of cultural diplomacy. Through an emphasis on shared values and a shared humanity, cultural diplomacy fosters international cooperation and supports international cooperation. It is partially a response to fears about the perceived development of Chinese soft power, and partly a consequence of changing attitudes among the elite who make decisions about foreign policy regarding the uses of new social media. During the process of making this investment, the conditions associated with both the international and the regional arenas are being taken into account.
