DEEP DIVES: CHINA 2023
About the Program
The goal of Network 20/20’s Deep Dives is to provide multi-layered and informative discussions encompassing a critical topic in geopolitics–in this case the rise of China–through a series of briefings with high-level experts. For the first time ever, we are excited to announce that this year’s Deep Dives: China will be virtual to widen the scope of participation for individuals from all around the world.
Over the course of six dynamic virtual sessions and two discussion groups, participants will have the unique opportunity to learn from and interact with experts and other participants, and refine their knowledge on China and its growing impact on the world. The framing question for this year’s Deep Dives: China is, “How can we understand China’s objectives at home and abroad?”

TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR PAST PARTICIPANTS
Kristen Kaufmann
Deputy Commissioner of International Affairs at the New York City Mayor’s Office for International Affairs
“The Network 20/20 Deep Dives program on China was an extremely useful, informative, and enriching experience. It covered everything from Chinese culture to ancient history, to modern-day foreign policy, weaving everything together to give the participants a thorough and thoughtful insight into what drives Chinese foreign policy. The program was extremely politically balanced in terms of the presenters, including those with widely differing viewpoints. The small, intimate sessions were often held in private apartments, and it was wonderful to get to know and create bonds with the others. I highly recommend this program for anyone who has an interest in learning more about this space.”
Arlette Laurent
Former Charge d’affaires of the EU Delegation to the UN
“The extensive coverage from 5000 years to today, from the Arts to the Art of War was a tour de force with an impressive array of scholars and practicioners- their variety as well as that of the attendees made this experience a particularly rewarding one.
No matter how objective one thinks one is, in fact some of my a priori assumptions (diplomacy/military/academia) were questionned. The other personal note is that, as much as I learned about China, I also acquired a better perception of the US and of Americans’ attitude to China- whether via the speakers or the other attendees.”
