Abstract
To strengthen cultural identity and bonds is an integral part of the Party’s governance strategy for Xinjiang in the new era, serving as a long-term and foundational approach to achieving social stability and enduring peace in the region. The advancement of internet technology has provided unprecedented historical opportunities for implementing the "To strengthen cultural identity and bonds" initiative. Grounded in Xinjiang’s multi-ethnic, multicultural, multi-religious, and multilingual context, this paper explores pathways for the internet to construct a cross-temporal and spatial cultural dissemination matrix, adopting multifaceted measures to promote interaction, exchange, and integration among ethnic groups, enhance the efficacy of "To strengthen cultural identity and bonds," and solidify the sense of the Chinese national community.
