The centre supports its own research projects and activities, as well as encouraging cooperation with partner institutions, researchers and academics in China and elsewhere in the world involved in the study of China.
The centre holds an Annual Workshop and Annual China Studies Conference each year. The Annual Workshop is on a specific topic, organized by one of the centre’s academic groups. The Annual Conference, towards the end of the year, showcases the centre’s recent research.
