Interdisciplinary education, as a crucial means of cultivating talent and advancing societal progress, is leading a new wave of educational reform. The historical evolution of interdisciplinary education can be divided into three stages: early exploration, imitation and adaptation, and innovative development. However, in practice, it often lacks a guiding cultural foundation. By grounding interdisciplinary education in Chinese culture, it becomes possible to harmonize the relationships between individuals, education, and society, thereby achieving the dual goals of fostering moral values and infusing humanistic attributes into education.To develop localized interdisciplinary education from a cultural perspective, it is essential to maintain the core mission of nurturing talent for the Party and the nation. This involves establishing a pathway for interdisciplinary education that infuses humanistic attributes, while also clarifying the ultimate goal of shaping individuals through education. On one hand, the infusion of humanistic attributes can be realized by building a resource repository of interdisciplinary education with Chinese characteristics, creating a regionally interconnected interdisciplinary education ecosystem, and fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders. On the other hand, shaping individuals is accomplished by promoting the integration of the “Five Educations”, innovating culturally-centered interdisciplinary teaching models, and cultivating educators with strong cultural grounding. These two aspects form a cohesive loop, driving the innovative development of interdisciplinary education.
