Norwegians love winter sports. Norway is a strong winter sports nation. Sports and outdoor activities are an important part of Norwegian people’s daily life. Norwegian sport culture has grown from the closeness to nature, a
strong sense of volunteerism and grass-root participation as well as a strong focus on sports being for fun. Comradeship, inclusiveness, equality and a healthy lifestyle are values that are important for the Norwegian society.

据了解，挪威正在与中国合作交流最佳实践经验，助力北京成功举办2022年冬奥会。自中国提出“到2022年带动三亿人参与冰雪运动”的宏伟目标以来，参加冬季运动的中国人日益增多。挪威在冬季运动基础设施的设计，管理和建设方面能提供宝贵的专业知识。挪威在滑雪和冬季运动装备方面拥有一些全球市场领先企业，其中挪威雪具公司以其卓越的质量和创新的设计而闻名。挪威与中国在冬季运动领域的紧密合作将有助于冬季运动更加繁荣地发展。
Norway is cooperating with China to exchange experiences on best practices to make the Winter Olympics in Beijing 2022 a great success. China has an ambitious goal of getting 300 million Chinese to participate in winter sports by 2022. Since then, the number of Chinese participating in winter sports has been increasing. Norway offers unparalleled expertise in design, management, and construction of winter sports infrastructure. Norwegian ski companies are well known across for world-class quality and innovative designs. As such, Norway is a natural and ideal cooperation partner for ski expertise and ski industry. The close cooperation between Norway and China in the field of winter sports will help winter sports thrive across borders.
