China Institute Li Siguang Lecture of Professor John Loughhead
Lecture title: Science Diplomacy with China – behind the headlines
Science diplomacy is a central element of the UK’s international science strategy and particularly so in its relations with China. It is the progressive development of scientific collaboration in both research and policy fields to enhance dialogue and demonstrate what the UK believes are the values and benefits of its institutions and systems.
While the overall diplomatic and political situation between the two countries restricts the areas where collaboration is possible there has been extensive activity over recent years, and this talk will review both what has been achieved and how it works in practice.
Following the lecture, we invite you to join us for a networking reception.
