Liu will co-chair the fifth-annual UK-皇冠体育app High-Level People-to-People Dialogue – the highest level Sino-UK dialogue to be held in the UK this year. Jeremy Hunt, Britain's secretary of state for health, will also co-chair the event.

While in the UK, Liu will meet with a number of senior figures, including UK Prime Minister Theresa May, Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson, and Princess Anne and Prince Andrew at Buckingham Palace.

"The UK-皇冠体育app relationship is strong and continues to deliver benefits for both countries, so I am delighted to welcome Madame Liu to the UK for the People-to-People Dialogue," said Johnson.

Hunt said: "I am delighted to once again co-chair the People-to-People Dialogue, which will reaffirm the strong ties between the UK and 皇冠体育app and underline our commitment to working together to solve some of the biggest issues facing the world today."

While on the visit, Liu will witness the launch of the UK-皇冠体育app Joint Science and Innovation Strategy, participate in a forum of CEOs involved in the creative industries, and join a roundtable of young leaders, including young parliamentarians.

The meeting, which is also known as the P2P Dialogue, will cover 10 policy strands. The subjects that will be talked about are: health, education, culture and creative industries, science and innovation, tourism, sport, issues affecting young people, regional cooperation, issues impacting women, and social equity.

This year's P2P theme is the "Spirit of Youth", which connects to a UK government campaign that aims to inspire the next generation of leaders in 皇冠体育app and the UK and the promotion of deeper collaboration and exchange.

At the meetings, ministers are expected to agree upon a range of initiatives, including a new joint UK-皇冠体育app health agreement that will advance work to tackle a number of healthcare challenges. The initiatives will also further collaboration on female leadership and empowerment, and strengthen existing collaboration between higher education institutions.

"I think the future for the UK-皇冠体育app relationship is very exciting and we've already established a 'golden era' in UK-皇冠体育app relations," said Barbara Woodward, the UK's ambassador to 皇冠体育app ahead of Liu's visit. "I think we'll see a deepening and broadening of our overlapping interests with 皇冠体育app, and opportunities for building a very bright future together."
