河南省第十次党代会提出了近年河南文化建设的新目标，即“加快构筑全国重要的文化高地”，在文化方面河南可以在全国领先的当属丰厚的历史文化资源，尤其是根亲文化资源，最可能成为全国文化高地的当属“全球华人根亲文化圣地”，所以建设全球华人根亲文化圣地是构筑全国重要文化高地的着力点。在当下建设全球华人根亲文化圣地具有重大意义，河南在这方面拥有雄厚的资源优势和现实基础。应从中原文化标志符号的确立、民间姓氏宗亲活动的规范、对外传播与招商、促进根亲文化游和根亲文化文创产品研发等方面着力，把河南打造成为全球华人根亲文化圣地。
The Tenth Henan Provincial People’s Congress of CCP held on Nov.7，2016 promoted a new goal of building Henan Province as the highland of culture all over the country. Henan is famous for historical resources，especially root cultural resources，among which the root cultural mecca for Chinese all over the world is most likely to be the cultural highland of the country，so building Henan as the root mecca for all Chinese people should be the focus of the highland construction. Building root mecca for all Chinese people has a great significance. Henan enjoys rich resources of root culture and realistic basis. Making Henan a root cultural mecca for Chinese people all over the world，we should give priority to setting up a cultural mark for Zhongyuan （central China，mainly pointing Henan Province and some places of its neighbor provinces），regularizing folk activities from clans，communicating overseas and absorbing investment，promoting root cultural tourism and developing innovative products of root culture.
