China has also experienced a notable resurgence of softpower, particularly amongst younger generations in the West, reshaping cultural perceptions of China. The 9th Annual YCW-KCL China Conference will examine how China’s vision of global order will coexist with conventions and institutions that have defined global governance for decades, or transform them.AGENDAKeynote speaker: TBCIn Conversation with Jung Chang, author of Fly, Wild Swans: My Mother, Myself and ChinaPanel 1: Regional Security Risks: The Role of China and the US in East Asia⁠Alessio Patalano, Professor of War & Strategy in East Asia, KCL⁠Xavier Casals, Lead Analyst, Northeast Asia and Oceania, Janes IntelligenceA speaker from TaiwanPanel 2: “Cool China”: The Rise of China’s Soft Power⁠Yaling Jiang, Author, Following the Yuan⁠Carwyn Morris, Senior Lecturer in Digital Society, SOAS⁠TBC: An industry expertPanel 3: From Rare Earths to Chips: China’s Strategy for Economic SecurityFrancesa Gheriti, Director, RAND Europe China Initiative⁠Henry Sanderson, Author Volt Rush, Former FT Metals and Mining Correspondent⁠TBC: An industry expertTicket prices include a light lunch with networking opportunities.

The cost of running the conference is approximately £16 per person, and we are grateful to the Lau China Institute and the Department of War Studies at King’s College London for enabling us to offer reduced rates.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Young China Watchers (YCW) is a dynamic group of China-focused young professionals.
