With the development of education globalization and the improvement of the comprehensive quality of talents, all countries pay attention to the moral cultivation of students. In traditional university education, knowledge transfer and professional skills training often occupy the dominant position. However, in recent years, the society has put forward higher requirements for the moral quality and social responsibility of talents. This demand has prompted universities at home and abroad to start thinking about how to integrate the concept of moral education and cultivate talents with high moral character and social responsibility. Therefore, the implementation of moral cultivation project has become the primary task of every country to build an education power.This paper delves into the triple logic of implementing the "Fostering virtue" project in higher education institutions in the new era: historical logic, theoretical logic, and practical logic. The paper reviews the development of fostering virtue as the fundamental task of education since the founding of the People's Republic of China 75 years ago, explores the theoretical foundation of fostering virtue, and elaborates on the work focus and practical requirements for higher education institutions to implement the "Fostering virtue" project in the new era, aiming to provide a working idea and theoretical support for higher education institutions to implement the "Fostering virtue" project in the new era.
