Co-organised by LU’s Institute of Policy Studies and School of Graduate Studies, the International Symposium with the theme “Re-imagining African agency in China-Africa Relations” was well attended in May 2021. The Symposium is part of LU’s plan to expand regional studies in Asia and Africa with a focus on China’s role and activities.
The two-day Symposium gathered respectful scholars and practitioners from Austria, Finland, Mainland China, Ghana, Hong Kong, Singapore, the UK and the USA to share their latest research, perspectives and experiences concerning the multi-sectoral China-Africa relations. The Symposium offered an excellent learning platform for students from LU and sister institutions in Hong Kong and abroad to interact with the renowned speakers.
