Overview

China’s economic and geopolitical rise over the last two decades has included a growing presence and influence across the globe, not least in the Global South, where it is an important investor across multiple sectors. The UVC and CPPF, through a decade of activities, is a leading node for a growing, yet fragmented interest in China’s engagement with the world.

Earlier projects on China and the world include the UVC’s China-Africa Knowledge Project, China-Africa Peace Fellowship, and CPPF’s activities on China’s engagement with the United Nations.
