加拿大高校文学社

加拿大高校文学社（Canadian Literary Association of Higher Education），简称“文社”/CLAHE）是在加拿大联邦政府注册的非营利机构。文社旨在为来自各高校的，拥有中国文化背景的各高校文学爱好者搭建一个纯粹的文学交流的平台。通过多种方式以文会友、相互学习、共同提高文学素养。文社在社团章程的框架下积极开展与文学相关一系列公益活动，同时借助文学艺术宣传带动及组织社区的各种公益活动。

背景和发展：

2015年秋季，在多伦多的46所中国高校校友会联席会议上，由西安交通大学多伦多校友会创会会长杨海军（笔名原野）先生等多所高校校友会会长发起倡议并组建成立了微信群形式的加拿大高校文学社，并于2020年9月正式注册。

自成立以来，文社吸引了来自百余所海内外院校文学爱好者加入。目前拥有注册会员500余人。大家以微信为主要交流阵地、以美篇等网络工具为创作平台。由文友组成的主持人团队每周拟定主题，成员们围绕主题进行创作，最终汇集成 “周专辑”公开发表 。

特色活动：

——“每周主题”创作：这是文社最具标志性活动。文友们围绕周主题，以诗词歌赋、散文随笔、微小说等形式笔耕不辍。作品争奇斗艳，雅俗共赏。在良好的互动氛围中，大家通过关注、点赞、点评与商榷，共同进步，获益匪浅。

——专题讲座：文社也开办了专题讲座和文社公众号平台推广制度，原则上每两周邀请文友中或文社以外的学者来通过线上进行公益专题讲座，涉及诗歌、散文、小说、翻译、法律、哲学、音乐、戏曲、绘画、摄影、书法、建筑等艺术以及与文学艺术相关的内容来开阔视野，激发创作灵感及陶冶情操。

——征文与出版：加拿大高校文学社文社成员来自不同院校，与加拿大众多高校校友会关系密切，拥有独特而浓厚的校友情结。

自第二届中国高校联合春晚起，承蒙主办方信任，文社连续成功承办了六届分别由清华，北大，“武汉三杰”， “六校联盟”，“海派六校“和浙系院校主办的六届”高校联合春晚“的征文活动，并将优秀作品集结出版：

这些主题征文活动为高校社区的团结与发展起到了增砖添瓦的积极作用。征文出版公益服务也成为社区的一大亮点。

2021年，受相关协会委托，文社成功承办了“直面疫情，迎接明天”专题征文活动，并将优秀纪实文学作品结集出版。文友们以细腻的笔触，真实记录了疫情期间海外华人团结一心、共克时艰的动人画面，用文学的力量鼓舞人心，记载了普通人在特殊时期的不凡生活。

2022年，为庆祝文学社成立七周年，由企业家冯建德Frontop Engineering limited冠名赞助正式出版了《我与文学》征文专辑。

2023年和2024年，加拿大高校文学社和加中经贸文化交流协会共同策划主办了第一届和第二届周建成•T·Q·C建筑加拿大“高校杯“全球大型征文活动《我的青春我的梦》以及《新家园新人生》并出版成书，引起社会各界的普遍关注和广泛好评，这些脍炙人口的美好篇章将会激励更多的海外游子和后人们追求梦想，生生不息。

目前，文学社已为文友出版了长篇小说《官场》散文集《北辰西照》和《岁月》在读者中引起广泛共鸣和好评。

2025年，加拿大高校文学社迎来了成立10周年纪念，我们正式出版了图文并茂的《加拿大高校文学社成立十周年纪念册》翔实记录了十年以来文学社筚路蓝缕，风雨兼程所取得的丰硕成果，同时从一个侧面也反映了海外华人热爱文学，积极弘扬和传播中华文化良好的精神风貌。

——加拿大高校文学社读书会：根据社团章程，2026年元月，文社依法产生了第二届理事会，同时也增设了新的版块——加拿大高校文学社读书会。新团队，新征程，在新一届理事会的带领下，高校文学社正焕发着前所未有的勃勃生机和青春的活力。

另外，文社微信公众号和网站 www.wenxueworld.com是推广文友们优秀原创作品和宣传文社各类活动的平台，定期推送从“每周主题”中甄选出的优秀作品，受到读者的普遍欢迎和赞誉。

生活是彩色的，生命是绿色的。文学社这个由各类专业人士构成的特别团体，通过大家线上线下交流、沟通，找回了学生时代之青春活力、校园情怀。这里成为了大家在休闲时光及紧张工作之余驻足享受文学之美的精神港湾。文友年龄从80多岁的矍铄长者到大学在读的年轻学子，跨越了老中青三代人。

生活是墨，文学是笔，让我们挥毫落纸共写美好篇章。感谢一路走来时刻关心支持加拿大高校文学社的各界爱心人士，文友及朋友们，让我们共同祝愿加拿大高校文学社越来越好！愿文学的光芒闪耀在整个加拿大高校社区，照亮每个人的精神世界！

Canadian Literary Association of Higher EducationCanadian Literary Association of Higher Education (CLAHE), also known as the “Literary Society,” is a non-profit organization federally registered in Canada. The Association is dedicated to providing a pure literary exchange platform for literature enthusiasts from various universities who share a Chinese cultural background. Through diverse activities, it brings people together through literature, encourages mutual learning, and helps members improve their literary accomplishment. Within the framework of its constitution, the Association actively carries out a wide range of literature-related public welfare activities, while also using literature and the arts to promote, support, and organize various community service initiatives.CLAHE is guided by the values of care and innovation; honesty and gratitude; integrity and kindness; equality and respect; inclusiveness and humility. Upholding the principle that character takes precedence, the Association seeks to elevate literary quality, initiate and guide all of its activities with integrity, and, through literature and the arts, support and organize a wide range of community-based public welfare initiatives.Background and DevelopmentCLAHE was initiated in the autumn of 2015 at a joint meeting of alumni associations from 46 Chinese universities in Toronto. The proposal was put forward by Mr. Yang Haijun (pen name: Yuanye), Founding President of the Xi’an Jiaotong University Toronto Alumni Association, together with the presidents of several other university alumni associations. The Association was first established in the form of a WeChat literary community and was officially registered in September 2020.Since its founding, CLAHE has attracted literature lovers from more than one hundred universities and colleges in China and abroad. It currently has more than 500 registered members. WeChat serves as its primary platform for communication, while online publishing tools such as Meipian are used as creative platforms. A volunteer team of moderators drawn from among members proposes a weekly theme, around which members create and contribute their works. These are then compiled and published as a public Weekly Collection.Signature ProgramsWeekly Themed WritingWeekly themed writing is the Association’s most distinctive and representative program. Members write continuously on weekly themes in a wide variety of forms, including classical poetry, modern verse, prose, essays, and flash fiction. Their works are diverse in style and rich in expression, appealing to both refined and general audiences alike. Within a warm and constructive atmosphere, members grow together through reading, appreciation, commentary, and thoughtful discussion.Special LecturesCLAHE also organizes special lecture series and promotes literary and cultural programming through its official WeChat public account. In principle, the Association invites scholars, writers, and professionals from within and beyond its membership to deliver free online lectures every two weeks. Topics cover poetry, prose, fiction, translation, law, philosophy, music, traditional theatre, painting, photography,calligraphy, architecture, and other subjects related to literature and the arts. These lectures broaden horizons, inspire creative thinking, and cultivate artistic appreciation.Essay Competitions and PublicationsCLAHE’s members come from a wide range of institutions and maintain close ties with numerous university alumni associations across Canada, giving the Association a distinctive and deeply rooted alumni spirit.Beginning with the Second Joint Spring Festival Gala of Chinese Universities, CLAHE was entrusted by the organizers to undertake the essay competitions for six consecutive gala events, hosted respectively by Tsinghua University, Peking University, the Wuhan Three Universities, the Six-University Alliance, the Shanghai Six-University Alliance, and Zhejiang-affiliated institutions. Outstanding submissions were compiled and published in the following collections:

• 2018 (Second Gala): A Distinctive Maple Sentiment • 2019 (Third Gala): Hand in Hand, Coming Home for the New Year • 2020 (Fourth Gala): Campus Affection, Canadian Bond • 2022 (Fifth Gala): Dragons Soar and Tigers Leap, as Spring Returns to the Earth • 2023 (Sixth Gala): University Ties in Canada, Welcoming the Year of the Rabbit • 2024 (Seventh Gala): Spring Flourishes with the Dragon, as Moonlight Fills the Human World • 2025 (Eighth Gala): Golden Snakes Dancing to Celebrate the New Spring

These themed essay and publication initiatives have made meaningful contributions to the solidarity and development of the university alumni community, and the Association’s public-service publishing efforts have become one of the community’s notable highlights.

In 2021, commissioned by a related organization, CLAHE successfully organized the themed essay initiative Facing the Pandemic, Embracing Tomorrow, and published a collection of outstanding documentary writings. With delicate and sincere writing, contributors vividly recorded the moving stories of overseas Chinese communities standing together in solidarity during the pandemic. Through the power of literature, these works inspired hope and documented the extraordinary lives of ordinary people in an extraordinary time.

In 2022, to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the Association, entrepreneur Mr. Feng Jiande and Frontop Engineering Limited sponsored the publication of the special anthology My Journey with Literature.

In 2023 and 2024, CLAHE, together with the Canada-China Economic, Trade and Cultural Exchange Association, jointly planned and organized the first and second Zhou Jiancheng • T.Q.C Architecture Canada “University Cup” Global Essay Competitions, under the themes My Youth, My Dream and New Homeland, New Life. Both were published in book form and received wide public attention and strong acclaim. These memorable and inspiring works will continue to encourage overseas Chinese and future generations to pursue their dreams with resilience and passion.

To date, the Association has also supported the publication of members’ individual works, including the novel Officialdom and the prose collections Northern Star Shining in the West and The Years, all of which have resonated widely with readers and received warm praise.

In 2025, CLAHE celebrated its 10th anniversary with the formal publication of the richly illustrated Commemorative Album for the 10th Anniversary of the Canadian Literary Association of Higher Education. This volume offers a detailed record of the Association’s remarkable achievements over the past decade, reflecting its perseverance, dedication, and steady growth. It also highlights, from one perspective, the admirable spirit of overseas Chinese communities in cherishing literature and actively promoting and carrying forward Chinese culture.

CLAHE Book ClubIn accordance with the Association’s constitution, CLAHE formally established its Second Board of Directors in January 2026. At the same time, it launched a new section of programming, including the CLAHE Book Club. With a new leadership team and a new journey ahead, the Association is embracing an unprecedented sense of vitality, creativity, and youthful energy.

Media and Outreach PlatformsCLAHE’s official WeChat public account and website, www.wenxueworld.com, serve as important platforms for showcasing members’ outstanding original works and promoting the Association’s various activities. Selected优秀 works from the weekly themed writing program are regularly featured and shared with a broader audience. Both the public account and the website have been warmly welcomed and widely praised by literature lovers.A Literary Community Across GenerationsLife is colorful, and the vitality of the human spirit is ever-renewing. As a unique community composed of people from a wide variety of professional backgrounds, CLAHE enables its members, through both online and in-person exchange, to rediscover the youthful energy and campus spirit of their student years. It has become a spiritual home where members can pause amid the demands of work and daily life to appreciate the beauty of literature.The Association’s members range from vigorous writers in their eighties to university students still in school, spanning three generations and forming a vibrant, inclusive, and deeply connected literary community.Life is the ink, and literature is the pen—together, let us create beautiful chapters on the pages of existence. Sincere gratitude goes to all the caring individuals and literary enthusiasts who have supported CLAHE throughout its journey. May we all wish for the continued growth and success of CLAHE!
