People to People Exchanges in US-China Relations: Forgotten Past, Fateful Future

Posted by Project Pengyou on June 24th, 2015  1605 views


On June 21st, 2015 preceding this year’s Consultation on People to People Exchange, Project Pengyou co-hosted an event in Washington D.C. with Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies – China titled: People to People exchange in U.S.-China Relations: Forgotten Past, Fateful Future.

The event was a speaker’s forum, in collaboration with SAIS – China and the Committee of 100. Even on Father’s Day, it was a full house, with a crowd of over 130 students and professionals interested in China.

For a full event re-cap, see our blog post!

The event kicked off with Dr. Gordon Chang video conferencing in from California.
