Yenching Global Symposium 2019,Wǒmen: Retelling the China Stories – Peking University (Fully Funded)

Deadline: December 8th 11:59pm (China Standard Time).

Held on Peking University’s historic campus in Beijing, this three-day, fully-funded event invites prominent Chinese and international scholars with a noted passion for China in their work and research, along with leading professionals from a wide range of fields. In a rapidly shifting global arena, the 2019 Symposium, Wǒmen: Retelling the China Stories , re-explores China’s multi-faceted revival through a gendered lens.

Women: Retelling the China Stories will take place March 29th – 31st, 2019 , and will feature keynote speakers, panels of academics and practitioners, interactive activities, site visits, and cultural immersion programming.

China has arrived. The stories of China’s arrival have been told through its politics, economics, and society.

Wǒmen: Retelling the China Stories

aims to identify key components of the global “China stories” and interpret them through a gendered lens.

The objective of this conference is to incorporate a gender nuance into the larger discourse on China. To this end, gender-related perspectives are the unifying thread through which we explore contemporary China’s most important issues.

Wǒmen: Retelling the China Stories moves Yenching Global Symposium forward in its vision of fostering the next generation of thought leadership on China through the symposium’s agenda-setting role.

The conceptual progression of 2019’s Yenching Global Symposium will be categorized into disciplinary sub-themes that narrate the China story:

ECONOMICS & DEVELOPMENT
This sub-theme will explore correspondences between gender and material resource distribution, and how this perpetuates gender-related phenomena across other levels of Chinese and international society.

POLITICS & LAW
This sub-theme will explore interactions among gender, legal dynamics, and political structures. Further, it attempts to understand how gender is considered and represented in making and assessing China’s policies across the local, domestic, and international arenas.

SOCIETY & CULTURE
This sub-theme will explore ways in which gender is represented in China’s art, culture, and public sphere. Lastly, it will move beyond the Chinese context to view the implications of such gender-society linkages for a global society.

With the world at a crossroads and China’s undeniably prominent role in it, the 2019 Yenching Global Symposium seeks to explore contemporary changes in China with gender at its nexus.

* Eligible delegates will receive

  • free round-trip tickets to Beijing and accommodation for the length of the conference.
