The Worldview Series: China
Partnership for a Secure America is excited to announce a new initiative with the US-Asia Institute for Spring 2016 called “The Worldview Series: China”. The US-Asia Institute and PSA have designed this unique educational program to improve congressional insight into China and better inform U.S. foreign policy decisions on Capitol Hill.
The series features off-the-record events with leading China experts from government, think tank, business, and academic arenas, and culminates in a delegation to China. Focusing on a holistic understanding of China’s economic, security, and domestic situation, this program aims to build a deeper understanding of the important decisions American policy-makers face regarding US-China relations.
The US-Asia Institute is an educational participant in the Mutual Education and Cultural Exchange Act, authorized by the U.S. Department of State.
