From January 2015 to June 2015, we will be organising a series of talks called ‘China Talks’. China Talks will provide students from all academic disciplines with an opportunity to hear experts from leading China Institutes and Think Tanks around the country speak about the 21st century’s greatest emerging power: China. The talks will focus on China’s current international and domestic issues and will be followed by a discussion. China Talks will not only enhance students’ understanding of China as an emerging power but also take advantage of the University’s international outreach by providing a platform for Chinese and non-Chinese students to engage and voice opinions and experiences.
