Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues

During the 2024-2025 academic year, the Georgetown University Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues brought 15 students from Georgetown together with 15 peers from Peking University for an extended dialogue about the future of U.S.-China relations.

After four virtual meetings, the Georgetown students travelled to Beijing and Shanghai in March 2025 to engage in in-person exchanges and participate in a study tour. During the trip, students visited the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, the National Development and Reform Commission Tiananmen Square, the American Chamber of Commerce, and the Shanghai Institute for International Studies, and others organizations.
