UNIT-E was founded in the spring of 2010 with the aim of establishing a non-profit, student-run magazine for international students in Beijing. Staffed by current students from a range of international schools, the magazine provides an amalgam of cultural tidbits, fragments of Beijing student life, and a broad spectrum of unique perspectives from a diverse group of young adults.
UNIT-E is dedicated to its mission as a medium for the empowerment of international school students through writing and expression. The publication strives to support students as they become proactive world citizens and foster deep ties to addressing social issues in Beijing. UNIT-E believes in the synergy embedded in a dedicated core of proactive youths whose united efforts harbor an impact far beyond the small-scale. UNIT-E believes in the harnessing of this power – the ability for youth to create substantial improvement in any community through cohesive and comprehensive efforts – and so envisions the future UNIT-E as a framework for any and all Beijing students to engage with local culture and positively disrupt the status quo.
