5 HIGHLIGHT Shanghai Forum 2017 Theme Economic Globalization and the Choice of Asia ASIA AND THE WORLD: NEW IMPETUS, NEW STRUCTURE AND NEW ORDER N ow the world is stepping into a crucial time: under the shadow of economic crisis, the era of great changes has come. This is an era of pragmatic development, in which all nations over the world choose its own route varied by different national conditions, different development phases and different challenges and inject down-to-earth development style to take real actions. This is an era of cooperation, in which all nations are tied and generate spirit of partnership under economic crisis by sharing common aspiration, interests and hopes. This is an open era, in which no more corner of the world is isolated under the global economy. Opening is a guiding force in global economic governance as well as the trend of the times. This is an era of innovation, in which, marked by mobile internet, the new technological and industrial revolution has unveiled. New technologies such as artificial intelligence and virtual reality are changing with each passing day. The incorporation of virtual and the real economy has brought revolutionary changes to people s production and life style. To embrace technical innovation, raise productivity, create new format, exploit new source of economic strength and push up the rise of new industries is the only choice for all nations in the new era. In an era of innovation and entrepreneurship, all nations should intensify the reforms, abandon outdated ideas and operation and management style that hinder the development, and fully stimulate man s initiative and market vitality. In recent years, many Asian countries have strongly encouraged innovation to give impetus to industrial transformation and upgrading, while at the same time accelerated the process of reform and unleashed the dividend of system and mechanism. The exploration of Asia deserves encouragement and expectation. Look around Asia and the world, the global political and economic pattern is undergoing the most profound adjustments since the end of the cold war. Factors like changes of political and economic power, development of issues left over by histor y and linkages between internal and external regions are expediting the pattern transition. Strategic competence among superpowers, the sharpening of territorial sovereignty disputes, highlights of geopolitical issues and integration and contradiction between economies are all increasing the counter risks among regions. Meanwhile, with the worldwide emergence of conservatism and populism as well as the change of national leaders, more uncertainty are added to the global and regional governance. Compared to other areas of the world, Asia is more culturally and systematically diversified, and hence is face with more complex situations and tough challenges. How to make full use of thousands of years of rich historical experience and governance wisdom? How to play Asian countries role in the reform of global governance system? How to shape examples of strategic innovation, institutional innovation and cultural innovation? How to construct a platform for win-win mechanism by multilateral regional cooperation? Asia not only needs the greatest common value and guidance, but also needs wisdom and measures leading to consensus as well as boldness and responsibility that surpass history and reality. The world economy is now at a cross road. In the past few years, the weakening momentum of emerging economies led by China exposes internal problems such as system and mechanism, growth pattern and structure as well as external constraints shared by BRIC nations and Asian high-income economies. How to keep the prosperity going? We must seek for an inclusive development through continuing reform, opening up, and innovation, enhancing macroeconomic policy coordination, promoting global economic growth, maintaining financial stability, innovating development patterns, exploiting growth sources, intensifying the liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment, and pushing forward the further opening of global economy. Small wisdom is for issues, great wisdom is for mechanisms. The shift of global landscape is followed by voices of changes around the world. To reshape the landscape and rearrange the order is the fundamental task for Asia and the world in a long period of time. The reshaping of landscape is accompanied by the rearrangement of order. In terms of Asia, it is undoubted that the shift of order should highlight the subjectivity of Asia, which means Asian affairs should be dealt by Asian countries and its people. Asians are willing, capable and wise enough to handle their own issues. Besides, the order should be centered on development and governance as they are imperatives for the continent, and without which, the order would be inanimate. What s more, it should be an open order, which encourages Asia and other countries and intuitions to maintain and develop beneficial connections and by which to show the vitality and confidence of Asia. Most importantly, the order should be set up on the basis of cooperation as economic development, social progress and people s happiness are the common wish shared by Asia and the world. All nations common responsibilities urge us to seek for cooperation rather than fight, seek for win-win, multi-win and all-win instead of single-win, seek for the greatest common value, expansion of cooperation, enhancement of coordination and reform of global governance. 01

Theme Interpretation On September 26, 2015, during the UN Development Summit held at UN Headquarters, New York, President Xi Jinping delivered an important speech entitled Seeking Common & Sustainable Development, Cooperating for Win- Win Partnership. In the speech, President Xi proposed China's initiative to build up a global energy internet, exploring to meet global electricity demand in a clean and green way. China s 13 th Five-year Plan for National Economic and Social Development published in mid-march 2016 also pointed out that, it is necessary to promote deep integration of new technologies in fields of energy and information, synthesize network construction of infrastructure in energy, communications and transportation, and build up an energy internet of harmonious development, integration and complementation in 4 energy facets, namely source, grid, load, and storage. Promoting new energy development and utilization is an important goal of energy revolution in modern world, while building Energy Internet is the key to achieving this goal. It is a fact that there is spatial heterogeneity between global energy consumption and resource endowment. Taking that into consideration, the future world is confronted with a big challenge in its course of sustainable development on how to overcome the imbalance of energy resource distribution and endowment difference, to serve the whole human society with more efficiency, so as to form an energy supply & demand balance and regulative system globally. Therefore, new global energy system and energy management architecture is in urgent demand to solve dilemmas and problems in development. Global Energy Internet will become the operation mechanism and rule for future energy system, the key to accomplish alternative clean energy and electric energy, and an indispensable part in constructing China s modern energy system. Everyone will have access to adequate, clean, cheap, efficient and convenient energy supply thanks to Energy Internet. This Forum will track the development of Energy Internet, focus on technology innovation and implementation in Energy Internet infrastructure, deep integration of energy and information, technology breakthrough in Energy Internet, smart energy management and supervision technology support platform construction, discuss problems and solutions in the development of Energy Internet. The Forum will also provide guidance in constructing Energy Internet technology standard, test, recognition and evaluation system. During the Forum, top experts and technical innovators in Energy Internet field will gather in Shanghai, jointly plan for developing Energy Internet and support China s Belt & Road initiative and energy system transformation, meanwhile realizing China's energy system modernization, ensuring energy security, and demonstrating as a model for the world in constructing modern energy system.

8 FEATURE Theme Interpretation 1. The background of the roundtable The theme of the roundtable is Trade Slowdown, Reverse Globalization and the Choice of Asia and China. The reasons for us to select this issue as the theme of the roundtable are as follows: 1.1 Reverse globalization in terms of trade According to CIA World Factbook, the global export in 2014 was trillion dollars. But this number has declined to 16.3 trillion dollars in The global import in 2014 was trillion dollars and the number declined to trillion dollars in These facts show that the global trade has a downward trend. 1.2 Reverse globalization in terms of politics In June 2016, British citizens decided to leave the EU, which is expected to have a huge impact on the EU and possible market integration worldwide. In the US, the elected president Donald Trump shows little interest in deeper free trade. Withdrawing TPP is at the top of his agenda. At the same time, TTIP between the US and the EU has also been suspended. The US and the EU are the major players in the world trading system and political development in both of them will inevitably affect their trading partners and the whole world. 1.3 East Asia still being the driving force to support global free trade In 2014, export and import of China were 2.34 trillion dollars and 1.96 trillion dollars, respectively. In 2015, they declined to 2.27 trillion dollars and 1.68 trillion dollars. The situation is similar in other countries of East Asia. Export and import of Japan in 2014 were 0.69 trillion dollars and 0.81 trillion dollars, respectively. In 2015, they declined to 0.62 trillion dollars and 0.65 trillion dollars. Export and import of Korea in 2014 were 0.57 trillion dollars and 0.53 trillion dollars, respectively. In 2015, the export declined to 0.53 trillion dollars and the import declined to 0.44 trillion dollars. Export of ASEAN countries also declined from 1.29 trillion dollars in 2014 to 1.16 trillion dollars in 2015 while import declined from 1.23 trillion dollars in 2014 to 1.09 trillion dollars in Although trade is declining and the reverse globalization is already on the way, East Asia countries still seek for enhancing global free trade. Taking China as an example, we can see the improvement it has made in unilateral, bilateral and regional free trade process. Free trade zones have developed from only one in Shanghai to eleven in the whole country. China has signed FTAs with Korea and Australia while the FTA with ASEAN has also been upgraded. RCEP including ASEAN countries, China, Japan, Korea, Australia, New Zealand and India already makes great progress and is expected to be finished soon. China plays a leading role in this process. Korea is also a good example. Korea has reached FTAs with almost all the major economies in the world such as the US, the EU, China, India and ASEAN. Korea aims to become the FTA center of the far east of the world. ASEAN has signed FTAs with China, Korea, Japan, India, Australia and New Zealand. India has signed FTAs with Korea and Japan. With these facts and development as the background, this roundtable will focus on the following questions: the situation of trade slowdown and reverse globalization in Asia; the reason of trade slowdown and reverse globalization from the Asia s perspective; the impact of trade slowdown and reverse globalization on the Asia s economy; the choice of Asia and China facing trade slowdown and reverse globalization. 2. The relevance of the roundtable 2.1 The relevance in theory We try to find the cause of trade slowdown and reverse globalization from a theoretical perspective. Is it cyclical or structural? Is it a short-term phenomenon or a longterm one? We also try to investigate the impact of this trend on the Asia s economy. Will trade slowdown and reverse globalization have any impact on intra-regional and inter regional integration of Asia? 2.2 The relevance in reality We want to answer the following questions based on the roundtable. For countries in Asia, do trade slowdown and reverse globalization have something in common or do they vary from country to country? Are they natural outcomes of development of division of labor? Facing these, what s the choice of Asia and China? Should we continue deepening the integration inside Asia or should we resort to the integration between Asia and countries outside Asia? 2.3 The relevance in social impact By organizing this roundtable, we want to arouse public attention on these phenomena. We also want to show the achievements scholars in Fudan University have made in this research field. In addition, we also want to expose the capability of Fudan in integrating various viewpoints to these phenomena of scholars in the world. 3. The sub-titles of the roundtable The roundtable has five sub-titles as follows: 3.1 The development of trade slowdown and reverse globalization: The Asia s case In this part, we will discuss the situation in Asia and its representative economies when facing trade slowdown and reverse globalization. Then we will have a comprehensive comparison between representative economies in Asia and countries in other regions. 3.2 The reason of trade slowdown and reverse globalization: The Asia s perspective In this part, we will first draw an overall conclusion of the reason of the trade trend from a global perspective. Then we will focus on Asia and carry out a deep investigation to find out the reason of this trend. 3.3 The impact of trade slowdown and reverse globalization on Asia s economy In this part, we will first find out the possible consequence of trade slowdown and reverse globalization on global economy. Then we will pay special attention to effects of this trade trend on Asia. 3.4 The impact of trade slowdown and reverse globalization on Asia Pacific integration In this part, we will first analyze the impact of trade slowdown and reverse globalization on multilateral, regional and bilateral free trade process from a global perspective. Then we will pay particular attention to its influence on the regional and bilateral free trade process in Asia. 3.5 The choice made by Asia and China in face of trade slowdown and reverse globalization In this part, we will have a policy discussion on what internal and external measures should be made by Asian representative countries when facing trade slowdown and reverse globalization. 4. The expectation outcomes of the roundtable Before the roundtable, we will submit a policy report based on the preliminary opinions of the organizers on the scheduled questions. The title of the report is supposed to be The Choice of China Facing Trade Slowdown and Reverse Globalization. The length of the report is around 5000 words. After the roundtable, we will submit another policy report based on various opinions of the participants. The title of the report is supposed to be Consensus and Controversy of the Choice of Asia Facing Trade Slowdown and Reverse Globalization. The length of the article is expected to be around words.

He is also a member of the Monetary Policy Committee of the European Central Bank and a member of the Economic and Financial Committee of the European Union. Theme Interpretation After the collapse of the Bretton Woods SYSTEM, the International Monetary System was set up with U.S. dollar being the dominant reserve currency. When the reserve issuer runs a loose monetary policy after the Financial Crisis of 2008, the multiple roles of U.S. dollar plays in the development of international trade and long-term investment that is, unit of account, medium of exchange and store of value have been impaired. The flood of dollar also leads to the inflation of global asset price bubble, the increased financial volatility, and the beggar-thy-neighbor currency devaluations of many countries. The U.S. dollar is thus hoarded as a hedge under the environment of heighted risk aversion, resulting in the exaggerated appreciation of U.S. dollar and the deterioration of trade deficit in the United States. With the return of the Triffin dilemma, China has been pushing further internationalization of the RMB, which can serve as a public good in the world economy growth. This contributes to restore the solvency of international currency and maintain the stability of IMS, and also brings new opportunities for Sino-European economic and trade cooperation. Central and Eastern Europe, as an important part of The Belt and Road, will intensify and expand cooperation in multiples fields including trade, investment, finance, etc. with China under the 16+1 mechanism, a platform created by China and 16 Central and Eastern European countries. This comprehensive cooperation is an important step for RMB to become international currency of settlement and investment, and eventually international reserve currency. Also, it will provide fresh impetus for the sustainable economic growth of Central and Eastern European countries. Gen. 31 Apr

He was awarded many academic honors. For instance, one of his books was included into National Achievements Library by National Planning Office of Philosophy and Social Science in 2010, and one of his papers was awarded the first prize of the 10th Shanghai Philosophy and Social Science Outstanding Research Achievement Award. Since November 10th, 2015, President Xi Jinping presented at the Central Financial Leading Group meeting, "while moderately expanding aggregate demand, we should also strengthen the structural reform of supply side, focus on improving the quality and efficiency of supply system and enhance the sustained growth force", "Supply-side reform" has become the direction of China's comprehensive deepening of reform. The concept of supply-side reform is derived from the fact that demand-side reform cannot give enough support to economy, and it reflects the concerns on long-term economic growth momentum. If China wants to enhance sustained growth force, we need to promote factor allocation optimization, and treat enhancing efficiency and total factor productivity as the goal. At the same time, the market-oriented reform process of factors, just like the market-oriented reform of goods in 1978, is bound to face risks and hidden dangers brought by institutional change, so the government's risk management is needed. From theoretical perspective, when the economy transfers from high growth rate level into low growth rate level, how to ensure that the soft-landing will not do lethal damage to the economic environment, and how to adjust the economic structure to obtain sustainable development driving power, are always core issues among any economy transition process. From practical perspective, when the demand-side management gains little, finding new economic growth force from supply-side will definitely influence China's future economic structure. From social impact perspective, reform and transformation absolutely will have long-term benefits, but it will also have "short pain". Thus, how to guard against shortterm risks, how to resolve the social issues form welfare victims, are Gen. 31 Apr

The focus of this discussion will include: Firstly, the issue of government function, which means, how to change from the role of intervening market allocation of factors to creating favorable macro environment. For example, how should public sector ensure public expenditure magnitude and sustainability. And how to use industrial policy to guide social capital "moving from stock market to entity economy", "moving from pollution industry to green industry ". Furthermore, how should monetary authorities guide the rational structure of social financing growth, and clear monetary policy transmission channels ; Secondly, practical path of factor marketing reform. It includes how to optimize the allocation of factors, expand effective supply, improve green total factor productivity, deepen the basic reform of state-owned enterprises and financial sector, orderly guide the process of urbanization and civilization of migrant workers, increase the flexibility of the labor market, depress asset bubbles and reduce the macro tax burden; process of reform; how to provide fundamental solutions to a variety of social risks and so on. Fourthly, international experience of supply side reform and sustainable economic development. Through this discussion, we hope to achieve the following objectives: Firstly, understanding the current economic situation at home and abroad, finding out the actual situation, including the status of factor endowments, the status of economic truth, the implementation of policies and the potential risks etc.; Secondly, putting forward some political suggestions on the practical path of promoting factor optimization based on facts and data; Thirdly, comprehensively inspecting potential risks that may arise in the reform, and based on this, proposing practical and feasible solutions of risk management for government. Thirdly, management of potential reform risks. For instance, how to effectively prevent and resolve all kinds of economic and financial hidden risks; how to control various environmental risks brought by traditional economic growth model and avoid extreme environmental events; how to improve living level in the 11

17 Theme Interpretation: After the 2008 financial crisis, the world economy recovers slowly, accompanied with deflation, decline of labor productivity, lack of technological breakthroughs and other factors which make the global economic growth uncertain. Globalization has also been confronted with global and endogenous stagnation since the financial crisis: a marked slowdown in international trade growth, a rise in trade protectionism, and a strong atmosphere of neighborliness. At present, Populism are already emerging among the developed countries as the driving force of globalization in the past, and led to a wave of "deglobalization" which has been revealed through Brexit, Trump election and etc. However, in the context of a slowdown in international trade growth and lack of economic driver around the world, Asia is expected to continue to promote its own huge potential to forward the development of Globalization. According to the IMF's forecast, in 2016, the economic growth rate gap between emerging markets and leading developed countries rose for the first time in the past five years, reaching 2.6%. And the gap is expected to further widen to 2.8% in In 2020 it is expected to gradually widen to 3.38%. As the beneficiaries of globalization, Asian countries might still continue to open up, to be the main driving force in globalization. Globalization has been the key to the prosperity for all countries, and it can survive only if all the major countries support the open trading system and the stable global financial system. Therefore, Asia and Europe should continue to promote globalization forward together, to make every effort to promote the development of the new global governance system and to establish and implement a system of trade and financial system rules commonly accepted by all countries, so as to make globalization a new round of development so that more countries can benefit from it. We expect that by organizing this sub forum in an anti-globalization trend in developed countries such as United States and European countries, while with the development of Asian countries, we will discuss whether Asia and Europe together can save the open global trading system and propose governance policies. Our sub forum will focus on the following issues: 1. The status of development and attitude of globalization in Western developed countries and Asian developing countries in post-crisis era. 2. Based on the international trade performance of Asia, Europe and the United States, can Asia and Europe continue to promote globalization forward together? 3. The operation and problems of international trade and finance system established by the developed countries in the current circumstances, and how to promote the evolution of global governance innovation architecture? 4. How can Asia and Europe work together to make institutional innovation in international economic governance and promote economic globalization, in order to achieve strong, balanced, sustainable and inclusive growth of the world economy? 13

21 Theme Interpretation: After financial crises in the US and European countries, mediocre economic growth in major markets worldwide compresses the development space of China. A new pattern of world economy imposes external pressure on Chinese economic development, thus initiating concerns about Chinese economic growth among people from all walks of life. According to The 13th Five- Year Plan in China, growth of world economy is sluggish during the period of indepth adjustment the weakness of traditional comparative advantages and the lack of innovative ability increase the downward pressure on Chinese economy. Driven by reforms of technical innovation and changes of market demand, production activities of Chinese enterprises rely on innovation to promote trade expansion and industrial upgrading in the global production network, which sustains the growth of Chinese economy. As a result, we should focus on the new pattern of global economy and explore more about innovation-based economic growth in China. Theoretical value: first, the global production network based on production fragmentation of enterprises can disclose the new pattern of changes in world economy. Reforms of technical innovation and changes of market demand bring production activities of enterprises into an era of global production network. According to Ernst (2000) as well as Ernst and Kim (2002), we come up with industrial production network and define it as a series of business relationships including the production and supply of intermediates, end products and services in an industry, which associates value chains related to this industry with value-added activities and therefore modularizes production. Second, intensifying protection of innovations can improve competitiveness of Chinese enterprises in the foreign trade, thus promoting innovation-based economic growth in China. Jie Zhang and Zhe Lu (2012) confirmed, for Chinese enterprises, the main way to deal with strict intellectual property protection and strengthen competitive power is to improve their core competitiveness. Shen (2010) thought, at the beginning stage of constructing an independent and innovation-oriented country, if the intellectual property protection is too strong, it will have an adverse impact on both the development of national innovation capacity and the growth of Chinese provincial economy. Policy and Social Value: As The 13th Five-Year Plan in China pointed out, during the period of indepth adjustment, growth of world economy is sluggish; the weakness of traditional comparative advantages and the lack of innovative ability increase the downward pressure on Chinese economy. Therefore, the sub forum topic The New Pattern of World Economy and China s Innovative Growth is aimed at providing theories and experience for China s economic growth. After financial crises in the US and European countries, the sluggish economic growth in major markets worldwide and the overflow of global trade protectionism lead to large changes of the foreign trade environment faced by China. People from all walks of life are concerning about the consecutive decline in export-oriented Chinese economic growth. The new pattern of world economy is mainly embodied in the global production network formed by production fragmentation. While Chinese innovative growth is primarily reflected in strengthening the innovation protection of intellectual property to enhance competitiveness of Chinese enterprises in foreign trades and therefore to promote Chinese innovationbased growth. As a result, we set up two topics for discussion and the details about focuses and orientation are as follows: 1. The issues on cultivation of innovative abilities and competitiveness in China s foreign trade under the One Belt One Road Strategy. 2. The issues on innovation protection and sustainable growth of Chinese economy in the global production network. By research and discussion on our sub-forum topic, The New Pattern of World Economy and China s Innovative Growth, main predictive objectives are as follows: First, to reveal the general rule on the dynamic evolution of economic growth among countries and the particularity of China under the global production network. Second, to disclose the issues on cultivation of innovation and competitiveness in China s foreign trade under the One Belt One Road Strategy. Third, to disclose the relationship between intellectual property protection and innovative modes of different countries under the global production network; to figure out which form of intellectual property protection would correspond to which mode of national innovation; to provide some references for Chinese innovative modes. Fourth, to figure out how research and innovation of enterprises in Japan and Korea influence the economic growth of Asian countries in the global production network. Fifth, to conclude how to promote the sustainable growth of Chinese economy by transformation development and innovation driven based on the sub-forum discussions. 17

Theme Interpretation: The World Health Organization estimates that 70-80% of the world's population use complementary therapies as first-line treatment. In China, health administration has evolved to include both Traditional Chinese Medicine and conventional "Western" medicine; the two systems of health care are used side-by-side in both acute care and community settings. In contrast, most North American acute care settings do not incorporate complementary therapies and even innovative institutions are only now starting to consider how to integrate complementary or traditional therapies as a part of patient care. While there is a desire on the part of the Western health care system to become more patient-centered and to respect individual beliefs, preferences, and values, tension exists between balancing individual desires with evidence-based treatment. Some complementary therapies may not meet current expectations for evidence regarding safety and efficacy, and their use poses challenges for medical and administrative leadership. On the other hand, if complementary or traditional therapies lead to better outcomes, lower costs and increased patient satisfaction, Western health care systems would likely be quite receptive to their integration. In addition, health promotion, disease prevention, and effective self-care in chronic disease management are all important considerations that may support the incorporation of complementary/traditional therapies. The intent of this session is to discuss challenges and opportunities regarding health administration in a globalizing world. Key barriers to integration of complementary and/ or traditional therapies, including cultural, scientific, ethical, medicolegal and financial barriers, will be discussed. Effective solutions to these issues that have been successfully implemented by various jurisdictions will be discussed. Given the emphasis on multidisciplinary care, implications for higher education of health care professionals during training as well as their regulation will be explored. Health administration brings together multiple sectors, including government, the health care system, and universities. Integration of complementary, traditional, and indigenous therapies with conventional Western -based medical care is a complex issue of global relevance, and may lead to a more patient-centered approach to health care as well as improved outcomes and lower system costs. This session will highlight successes, barriers, and potential solutions that need further exploration to inform policy and practice. Gen. 31 Apr

He also serves as the Executive Council Member of the Insurance Society of China and the Senior Member of Accounting Society of China. He is also a Research Associate at Centre for European Economic Research in Germany. He obtained his Ph.D. in economics from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.

He has presided many key national research projects, including projects supported by National Science Foundation of China, Ministry of Education, Shanghai Government and China Insurance Regulatory Commission. With the intensive discussion about FinTech in international community, FinTech is seemed as a new pillar industry for national economy and financial development in future. However, as a derivative of FinTech, InsurTech has relatively less attention. In June 2015, the World Economic Forum (WEF) has published a 178-pages report based on 197 significant scholar s researches, who come from academic, economic, government field. The Future of Financial Services How disruptive innovations are reshaping the way financial services are structured, provisioned and consumed indicates that technology development will absolutely impact traditional financial industry including bank, security and insurance field; moreover, it will mostly influence insurance in long term. Several countries which has developed financial industry, such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland and Singapore, are incisively grasp the tendency of technology progress with finance development, and then devote to promoting market innovation for InsurTech as well as lay out new advantage for future insurance development and the new philosophy for social progress. In global market, there are increasing number of innovative modes challenging traditional insurance industry: an US company OSCAR promotes the insurance to becoming individual health expert; Germany s Friendsurance utilizes the way of group purchase to establish insurance circumstance through friends circle; Metromile from US adopts a method to charge premium based on automobile driving miles, which also benefits for Green Travel. According to this cases, InsurTech not only induces new market, but also builds new ecology and becomes the new engine for insurance industry development. Nowadays, it is no doubt that InsurTech plays a more and more important role in China national strategy, financial industry development and social well-being; while related academic researches are not enough. Fortunately, InsurTech practice in China, which always will be discussed and referenced in international researches, has fully surpassed domestic academic and policy research. The Insurance Sub-Forum for the 2017 Shanghai Forum will focus on the topic of InsurTech: New Market, New Ecosystem and New Engine. As we know, it will be the first comprehensive forum for InsurTech. InsurTech is a generalized concept, also distinguished from the technology insurance which focus on insurance serving technology. InsurTech utilizes technology to overturn the value chain of traditional insurance, and brings to fully disruptive innovation from insurance products design, sales, underwriting, settlement of claims and investment management. Therefore, under the new tendency, traditional insurance magnates may not continue to win, while small and medium sized enterprises as well as innovative enterprises have possibility to grasp development opportunity. Currently, popular topics such as online insurance, technology application of regional chain, big data, contextualized marketing and sharing economy are all included in InsurTech, and will be discussed in our forum. The forum will devote to building a strategic height for China InsurTech development, integrating regulation, industry and academic in a technology innovative triune platform. 19

He is guest researcher at Nordic Institute for Asian Studies and serves as the executive vice director of Fudan-European Center for China an international platform on comparative China studies based at University of Copenhagen. His research interests lie in the field of political sociology, comparative politics, state-society relations in China, and regional cooperation. Host: Lars Vargö Distinguished Fellow, Institute for Security & Development Policy (Sweden) Former Swedish Ambassador to Japan ( ) and South Korea ( ) Theme Interpretation: Lars Vargö is the former Swedish Ambassador to Japan ( ) and South Korea ( ). He obtained his Ph.D. in Japanese studies from the University of Stockholm (1982) with a thesis on the formation of the early Japanese state. He graduated from Uppsala University 1972, majoring in sinology. In he was a repeat Mombusho scholar at Kyoto University. As a diplomat Vargö has returned to Japan four times, but has also served in Libya, Lithuania and the United States he served as Ambassador and Head of the International Department of the Swedish Parliament.

He has also translated Japanese novels, short stories and poetry into Swedish. He is the founder of the Seoul Literary Society, as well as the Tokyo International Literary Society. The past half-century has witnessed a reduction of ideological and political obstacles to cross-border cooperation in North East Asian (NEA) region. There has been a substantial progress in free trade negotiations and concomitant growth of regional cooperation in dealing with economic recession, scarcity of energy resources, and environmental degradation over the last two decades. Notably, the rise of China and its active regional and global initiatives have generated new dynamics to regional integration. Despite its growing interconnectivity, NEA region still lacks sufficient institutional infrastructures and effective mechanisms to mitigate potential conflicts and promote regional cooperation. Economic disparities, confrontational nationalism, widespread domestic governance issues, new forms of security threats have combined to challenge the community building efforts. The Trump presidency, with its narrow interpretation of U.S. interests and a transactional mentality in dealing with the international community, has added uncertainties to the political order in the region. Against this backdrop, what kind of new political order can one expect in NEA region? Under what condition can North East Asia achieve a cross-border cooperation for sustainable development? Specifically, how can NEA regional engagement be inspired by the Nordic experience, where all disputes have been peacefully resolved over the last century and have become one of the most integrated regions in the world? This sub-forum will delve into the critical issues of conflict resolution and cross-border cooperation in NEA and explore whether and how the Nordic lessons can be useful for the remaking of political order in the region. Discussions will provide new and relational thinking that addresses meanings and values underlying conflict resolution, regional cooperation, economic interests and environmental protection. The insights from the participants including a group of distinguished diplomats and scholars from these two regions will contribute to the comparative study of regional cooperation and help formulate a new road map for community building in NEA.

His research is mainly focusing on China s Diplomacy History, China s Neighboring Diplomacy, the Korean Peninsula Issues and the Regional Cooperation in Northeast Asia, the Korean Independence Movement and the China-ROK Relations. His major publications include The New Theory on the Diplomacy History of the Republic of China (three volumes), A Historical Analysis of Modern China s Relations with the Neighboring Countries, China s Neighboring Diplomacy: 14 Lectures, Research Report on China's Neighboring Diplomacy after the 18th CPC National Congress, Collected Papers on Korean Independence Movement and China (two volumes), and Chronicles of Korean Independence Movement and China (three volumes). He has won the provincelevel and ministry-level awards for excellent academic works for several times, such as the First Prize in the Excellent Academic Works Awards of Philosophy and Social Sciences (PSS) granted by the Ministry of Education of China and by Shanghai Planning Office of PSS respectively. Year 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of ASEAN, whose integrity and centrality has a significant impact on the prospects of regional cooperation and even the Asian orders. The US will probably adjust its Asia-Pacific policy in a dramatic way after President Trump takes the office in 2017, which inevitably affects the development of ASEAN-China relations. China s Belt and Road Initiative will be further promoted and implemented in 2017, which provides opportunities and paths for the transition of ASEAN-China relations. The rising powers in Asia will provide prominent leadership on the global stages only when they are able to manage their differences and pursue mutual benefits. The deepening of ASEAN-China cooperation confirms to the shared demands of regional members in Asia, and facilitates the development and integration of ASEAN Community and a wider region. The implementation and improvement of the ASEAN-China track will work as a prototype for the other tracks in the "ASEAN +" system, and guide the interaction amongst the regional members into the track of win-win cooperation. This session will be organized by the Center for China s Relations with Neighboring Countries (CCRNC) at Fudan University, with the Network of ASEAN-China Academic Institutes (NACAI) and Asia Research Center of Fudan University (ARC-FDU) working as the partner institutes. Nearly twenty influential scholars from China and ASEAN countries are invited to participate in the session. The topics discussed in the session are as follows: (1) East Asian Cooperation in Transition and Regional Integration (e.g. the perspectives of East Asia Summit (EAS) members on East Asian Cooperation); (2) ASEAN-China Cooperation under Belt and Road Initiative (e.g. infrastructure, industrial parks, investment and financing cooperation) ; (3) The Experience and Implications of ASEAN-China Cooperation in the Past 50 Years; (4) ASEAN- China Differences Management (e.g. maritime territorial disputes management, fishery disputes management); (5) ASEAN-China Win-win Cooperation (e.g. the joint exploitation in the South China Sea, fishery cooperation mechanism, the consultation for the Code of Conduct in the South China Sea, RCEP, upgraded version of the CAFTA, Lancang-Mekong Cooperation mechanism). 21

26 FEATURE Digital Governance Session 1 Global Cyberspace Governance in a Post-Transition World Organizer: School of International Relations and Public Affairs, Fudan University Co-organizer: Centre for Cyberspace Governance Studies, Fudan University Host: Shen Yi Theme Interpretation: Host: Shen Yi Director, Center for BRICS Studies, Fudan Development Institute Deputy Director, Centre for Cyberspace Governance Studies, Fudan University Shen Yi is the Associate Professor of Department of International Politics of Fudan University, Director of Center for BRICS Studies of Fudan Development Institute and Deputy Director of Centre for Cyberspace Governance Studies of Fudan University. He also serves as a guest research fellow of China Institute of Cyberspace. He studies cybersecurity, cyberspace governance and cyber diplomacy. His research was published in World Economics and Politics, International Review, China Review, Messenger, Wenhui Daily, and Oriental Morning Post. He is the independent author of National Network Security Strategy of the United States published in Since 2014 he has been invited for three successive years to participate in the World Internet Conference hosted in Wuzhen and he also attended the 5th Xiangshan Forum as a guest speaker. He has been widely regarded as one of the most active young scholars in the field of cyber security and strategy studies. On April 19 th this year, Prof. Shen was invited as one of ten presenters to speak at the Cyber Security and Informatization Work Conference presided over by President Xi Jinping. During the forming of a new order of global cyberspace governance, both China and Asia should undertake proper obligation and responsibility, in order to promote a better performance of Asian intelligence and spirits in the global cyberspace governance. From China s perspective, with the rapid growth in global cyberspace governance field, China should encourage other Asian countries to participate in the trend of governance development in this area, and make Asian voice heard in the global stage. At the same time, China should also actively coordinate the resource allocation in cyberspace, and thus promote overall management level of cyberspace in Asia, together with other developing and developed countries. From the view of Asia, people should grant Asian spirits more flexibility and let it fully shine in the cyberspace. Asian spirits emphasize inclusiveness, which is the exact principle people stick to whenever solving regional disputes. Similarly, Asian spirits will also be the key to a better future in this naturally open field of cyberspace. It will help avoid being crowded out in the competition and let Asian bring further contribution. On the one hand, the formation of global cyberspace regulation and a new order of cyberspace governance is a challenge faced by not one country but countries around the world. On the other hand, it is also an opportunity shared by countries worldwide. How to apply Internet technology to global development more effectively is an essential topic for everyone. China and other Asian countries should play a better role, promote the formation of the discussed new order, and reinforce the rapid growing trend happening in the cyberspace. U.S. Government officially transferred the stewardship of IANA function to ICANN on October 1st, 2016, which ended the nearly 20 years unilateral administration of the Internet's core resources. IANA (Internet assigned numbers authority) stewardship transition has a positive significance to the forming of a new order of governance of global cyberspace. It is also conducive to bridge the digital divide be tween developing and developed countries. While at the same time, it also opens the new phrase of continual-ly promoting the internationalization of governance of the global cyberspace. How to reform and improve the structure, procedures of the governance of the Global cyberspace has already become one of the most important new areas and nearly all the major actors, including the state and non-state actors, wants to take an active role in the procedures. The stewardship transition is not the end, and the further development needs more input from different actors, especially those supported by the Asia wisdom. This session will focus on: (1) An Assessment of ICANN Transition (2) Key issues, under the framework of Global Cyberspace Governance, need to be resolved in the post transition period (3) How to initiative a code of conduct among the Great Powers in cyberspace which will enhance the security and strategic stability in this new domain (4) The potential challenges and possible contributions to the new order of global cyberspace governance in Asian perspective Through this session, we d like to raise effective cross-border and joint research in the academic communities, especially among the young scholars among different Asia countries. Such kind of activities will contribute the positive contribution to the further internationalization of the governance of global cyberspace, and we also want develop joint policy analysis report and academic research papers focusing on this topic. We believe it will promote further analyze the impact of the ICANN transition on the governance of the global cyberspace, and make it possible to predict and evaluate the internationalization process of the key information infrastructures of global cyberspace. This will help us get a better understanding of the effects on developing and developed countries in the development of the cyberspace, explore the influencing factors and trend of the development of the global cyberspace regulations, and help to shape the future development model of the global cyberspace governance.

27 Digital Governance Session 2 New Thinking and New Model For Global Network Governance: Constructing New Order of Network Privacy Protection Organizer: School of Journalism, Fudan University Host: Zhou Xiao Theme Interpretation: Host: Zhou Xiao Professor, Journalism School, Fudan University Zhou Xiao is the Professor of Fudan Journalism School, Visiting Scholar of CUNY, the U.S., Bachelor of financial statistics, Master of business administration, PhD of enterprise management. She has worked as a reporter, translator and editor, producer and channel planner in Hunan Economic TV, Macao TV and Hunan Satellite TV. Her research covers new media management and economics, new media culture and new media industry. She has attended many international academic conferences in London, Now York, New Orland, Queensland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Beijing and Shanghai. Since 1996, she has published more than 90 articles on academic journals such as Journalism & Communication, Journalism Bimonthly, The Journalist Monthly, TV Research, Journal of Management Science, China Industrial Economics and Journal of Salzburg. She also published several books including Remoulding America--- The over-all construct of U.S. New media Society and its impact, Theory of Change in New Media Society, Audio-visual program planning, China industry report, Reconstruction of Media Value System and Research on the Value Added System of Chinese TV Media Industry. During the past ten years, she undertook more than 10 research projects funded by National Social Science Foundation, The Ministry of Education, The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and Shanghai municipal government. With the growing popularity of big data and cloud computing technologies, cultural conflicts are spreading and aggravating, which may lead to globalized large-scale social crisis at any time. We need to study network security governance issues at the level of promotion of the harmonious development of culture, a new Internet culture rooted in the user 's position. At present, no consensus is achieved in the connotation and extension of Internet privacy. Nobody claim for the right of Internet privacy, which becomes the Internet's biggest risk in economic development. It is difficult for countries and enterprises, as Internet users, to transcend secular interests. Therefor they are not suitable as the core body which is responsible for Internet privacy management. At the same time, the globalized monopoly and sharing of cooperation brought by social media has created a new Internet ecosystem centered on the platform economy and the bilateral market, which has surpassed the national and corporate governance in many fields. We urgently need new governing leaders, new governance ideas and cooperation framework to adapt to and meet the changing needs of Internet privacy protection in the new ecological environment in order to avoid privacy problems and constraints of the Internet economic development. There is an urgent need for academics and industry leaders in Internet technology research and development, Internet legislation, social media platform operations, and Internet economics to discuss how to rationally establish the content, structure, value boundaries and other core aspects of personal information assets. And thus the above discussions are applied as a basis for indepth study of the network technology and network service that humans really need. How to sustainably nurture and protect human dignity and self-confidence in the face of rapidly evolving new technologies and to ensure that new technologies are developed for the benefit of the greatest number of people, not the other way round, or without any consideration for human kind at all. The purpose of this forum is to build a global technology-related human rights protection system with intrinsic value logic and self-growth based on a reasonable concept of personal information assets and legal framework. Those are expected objectives of our forum: In terms of theoretical research, to discuss how to reasonably define and classify the management of Internet personal information; in the framework of the Information Asset theory, how to construct a groundbreaking top-level design so as to create a user-centered protection mechanism, similar to Wikipedia s Internet privacy policy. We expect the implementation of a forward-looking and highly-adaptable regulation on Internet privacy. In terms of practical strategies, to discuss how to construct a user autonomous organization worldwide based on "Personal Information Assets", so as to reach a sustainable win-win cooperation system with states and enterprises as well as to build a multilateral community of interests. Taking the user autonomous organization as the core, we expect to create a protective development idea and practice model of user data. In that way we could maintain network security better and change the idea of national and individual opposition fundamentally. Based on the core concept of "Personal Information Assets", we try to build highly related concept of "technical human rights" which allowing users to participate and have the right to decide 'what is a good Internet technology, products and services?', then we know that how to form a strategic research group covering researchers from all areas including industry, academia, science and politics. And how can this group give advice and recommendations of "network security governance" policies to global management agencies in order to promote global cultural harmony. 23

28 FEATURE Environmental Governance Session 1 Low Carbon: The Way of China s Economic Development to Global Environmental Changes Organizer: Energy Research Institute, National Development and Reform Commission, P.R.C. Fudan Tyndall Center Host: Jiang Kejun & Jiang Ping Host: Jiang Kejun Senior Researcher, Energy Research Institute, National Development and Reform Commission From 1993, Kejun Jiang began the research on climate change relative to energy policy analysis, which focuses on energy technology policy assessment, energy supply policy assessment, renewable energy development and energy conservation. Started from 1994, he has worked on Integrated Assessment Model (IAM) development for energy and GHG emission scenarios, policies, focusing on China and global analysis. At present, he is mainly working on policy assessment for energy and environment policy assessment by leading Integrated Policy Assessment Model for China (IPAC) team. His mainly interests include energy and emission scenarios, energy policy, energy system, energy market analysis, and climate change, local environment policies and international negotiation. Now he is CLA in WGIII of IPCCAR5, LA for IPCC AR5 Synthesis Report, and author for UNEP Emission Gaps. His recent research projects include energy and emission scenarios for 2030, low carbon emission scenarios up to2050, roadmap for air pollution control, assessment on energy tax and fuel tax, potential for energy target in China, development of Integrated Policy Assessment model, etc. Host: Jiang Ping Associate Professor of the Department of Environmental Science and Engineering, Fudan University Director Assistant, Fudan Tyndall Centre, Fudan University Jiang Ping s research interests focus on the low carbon sustainability, which covers climate change, environmental management, energy saving technologies and social behaviour, management system and people behaviour change in building low carbon communities, and environmental sustainable development with co-benefits approach. Dr. Jiang has undertaken and completed 7 research projects as the leader, and published 19 papers in his research area.

29 Theme Interpretation: After the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Paris, the actual process towards achieving global warming target has been advanced intensively worldwide.for the past few years, the development of services and new industrial technology represented by low carbon technology has become the key driving fact or which determines the changes of the future international competition pattern. There is significant progress from industrial technology, transportation, power supply technology etc.. Technology is becoming more mature, cost is decreasing obviously and compared to a few years ago. The research, development and popularization of technology with low carbon as the core has become one of the key elements that determine whether this industry is developing well or not. Renewable energy power generation technology, eletric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, ultra efficient household appliances, near zero emission buildings, low carbon innovative industrial production technology and so on can basically change the competition pattern in economy. Not going toward low carbon development path could be quite dangerous for our economy. Loss of competitiveness in economy brings burden on our country s longterm economic development. Low carbon economic development has gained a great deal of academic research support, and many scholars have proposed findings on climate change new economics. The technology progress in reality and strategies of many countries and large enterprises have been recognized clearly. Also, the future economic development driven by low carbon is getting to be a clear picture. Recent discussions have been moving on to talking about the ambitious countries to support the ambitious climate change mitigation goals raised on the Paris Agreement. All the countries, which have been planning or will plan on the low carbon economy transformations, are the strongest and most powerful economies. According to our study, a large amount of companies in our country might be faced with possibility of bankruptcy if they are not determined to carry out low carbon transformation, such as state owned enterprises. One fourth of state owned enterprises is unlikely to stay sustainably. Nowadays, China s attitude towards heading for low carbon economy in the future is not very firm, and China does not realize the enormous negative effects on economy if we would not conduct this transformation.hopefully, this kind of voice will be intensified by strengthening continuous scholar discussions and forums to accelerate the process moving towards low carbon economy transformation in China. The agenda covers the development pattern and trend of global low carbon economy, the impacts of low carbon development on company competitiveness, international governance structure of global low carbon economic development, the practical significance of the new ambitious goal raised in Paris aiming at 1.5 temperature raising globally, the low carbon norms of overseas investments and the influences of China s low carbon process on the low carbon development of B&R (the Belt and Road). It is expected that through the discussions in this forum, strong voice from a high-level scholar to promote our country s acknowledgement (confirmation/affirmation?) of moving towards low carbon transformation is made to present explicit viewpoints and to spread in different ways. We are considering that a paper would be published based on this forum in the Macroeconomic Research, Guangming Daily or Economic Daily, and media would be invited to report at the same time. 25

He has been recipients of several important awards, including the David Bates Award of the American Thoracic Society and the China Medical Board (CMB) Distinguished Professorship Award. His research is focused on the health impact of ambient air pollution and global climate change. Theme Interpretation: At the conference on August 26, 2016, the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee reviewed and approved the plan for a Healthy China The plan is a general guiding document for a healthier body of Chinese people in the coming 15 years. It emphasizes that health should be strengthened by combining with all related major policies, that is, Health in All Policies, such as fighting environment pollution and improving the nation's healthcare provision. The emphasis should be put on disease prevention and solving the health problems of vulnerable population including women and children, the elderly, the disabled, floating and low income population. The plan for a Healthy China 2030 is in coincidence with "The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" adopted by the United Nations in the 68th general Gen. 31 Apr

31 assembly in September The 17 global sustainable development agenda to the year 2030 covers three aspects of sustainable development: economic, social and environmental. These new development goals put forward a wide range of economic, social and environmental goals while persisting on many developmental priorities (poverty elimination, healthcare, education, food safety, nutrition, etc.). Each country faces specific challenges in its pursuit of sustainable development. Thus, the most vulnerable countries and populations deserve special attention in particularly. Children are the future of human development. To provide children with a safe, healthy and clean environment to meet their needs for survival, growth and development is the ultimate goal of all mankind should strive for. However, we have very limited knowledge about the effects of environment on children's health. In terms of appearance, children and adults are all human, but smaller in size. Children are not just small "adults" or "little adults", but have a lot of different characteristics from adults. For example, children's central nervous system, immune system, reproductive system and digestive system is under development and maturation continuously. In the early stages of growth and development, children exposed to certain environmental toxins or harmful factors may suffer lifelong irreversible damage. Per unit body weight, children breathe more air, consume more food and drink more water than adults. Therefore, children absorb more harmful substances than adults via respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract and skin in the same environment. All these differences make children more sensitive to the environmental hazards, and the damage effects on the growth and development in childhood may have long adverse impacts on health in their whole life span. Therefore, while adult health and disease is the result of the interaction between environmental factors and genetic factors, the health and disease of children is the result of the interaction of environmental factors, genetic factors and growth and development. With the keywords of "Health, children, environment and sustainable development", we choose "Towards Healthy Asia 2030: Sustainable environment for child growth and development" as the theme of this sub forum to discuss the effects of social and environmental factors on children's health and sustainable development, and wish to offer advice and suggestions for promoting the plans of Healthy China and Healthy Asia. medicine to deeply discuss and exchange their opinions on the health effects of social and environment factors on women and children in the context of globalization and social transformation of Chinese modernization. The invited scholars who participated in various international or domestic health policy making would have lots of consulting experience. They can introduce new technologies and research findings in the forum and give their comments and suggestions on how these technologies and findings can be transformed into policy. The view highlights and policy recommendation reports will be submitted to Shanghai Forum. We expect these documents will be helpful to improve Chinese maternal and child health service system and promote the sustainable development of Healthy Asia 2030 through South-South cooperation. The invited guests in this sub forum will include maternal and child health policy experts from UNICEF and WHO, child and adolescent health experts from Peking University, Fudan University and Shanghai Jiaotong University, children's environmental health experts from Columbia University, Seoul University and INCHES, and birth cohort PIs from Shanghai Jiaotong University, Anhui Medical University and Nanjing Medical University. Focusing on the sustainable development for child growth and development, these experts will introduce their research findings on effects of social and environmental factors on children's health from bench work to policy transformation, and exchange their opinions on the maternal and child health problems in Asia, the optimization of sustainable environment of child development and maternal and child healthcare service system. To promote the goal of "Healthy Asia 2030", the invited experts will list research priorities for domestic maternal and child health problems, give their suggestions on how to strengthen multidivisional and multidisciplinary cooperation, and on how to promote the transformation of basic research to policy. We will highlight their point of view and draft the policy recommendation report which will be submitted to Shanghai Forum. We expect these documents will be helpful to improve the construction of Chinese maternal and child health service system and promote the sustainable development of Healthy Asia 2030 through South-South cooperation. The topic of this sub forum is " Towards Healthy Asia 2030: Sustainable environment for child growth and development", which corresponds to the theme of Shanghai Forum 2017 to promote the Healthy China and its sustainable development. We will invite outstanding scholars of maternal and child health and environmental 27

33 Theme Interpretation: As embodied in the report of CPC s 18th national congress, the concept and theory of ecological civilization have been widely accepted as one of the key strategies, which determine China s future development in the context of discarding purely GDP-orientated development pattern with the sacrifice of environmental sustainability. To achieve the goals of green development and ecological civilization (GDEC), there are urgent demands of accurate performance assessment, management policies, and institutional aspects, which may be very complicated when performed in multiple scales with spatial dependency and political relevancy. Accordingly, to fulfill aforementioned tasks, there are three issues that should be deeply addressed and discussed, including (1) how to perform accurate performance assessment of GDEC; (2) how to choose the acceptable implementation paths for GDEC; and (3) how to develop and optimize the decisionmaking system. Governmental officials, experts, and scholars with international reputation will be invited to participate in the coming conference. The issues will focus on the linkage between accurate performance assessment, implementation paths, and decision-making system of GDEC in the context of China s transitional development. The output of this sub-forum is expected to summarize the latest knowledge system of GDEC, and thus provide the scientifically-based guidance for governance. Key topics: (1) Multiple-level accurate performance assessment systems for practice of GDEC, focusing on up-to-bottom levels accurate performance assessment systems across province, region, county, and industrial park; (2) Multiple objectives and options of implementation paths for GDEC, focusing on industry transformation and upgrading, industrial ecological pattern, regional socioeconomic-environmental inequality and conflicts, balanced development and ecological compensation, as well as recycling economy and cyclic development; (3) Decision-making system of GDEC and strategic environmental assessment (SEA), focusing on integrated approach of administrative decision-making and SEA, optimized implementation paths for GDEC, and mechanism of decision-making system; (4) The essential relationship between performance assessment systems, implementation paths, and mechanism of decision-making system. Expected objectives: (1) To systematically diagnose and summarize the shortcomings and problematic issues of regional socioeconomic-environmental inequality and conflicts due to unbalanced development in China; to discuss the solution to cracking the barriers of sustainable development of China s socio-economic-environmental system. (2) To create an opportunity for exchanging new ideas and innovative thinking among international and domestic scholars and decision-makers, who are engaged in creating new knowledge and developing management policies for GDEC. (3) To develop a cooperative platform aiming at developing new knowledge and management policies for GDEC, and thus enhance the holistic study of GDEC, including the theoretical study and practice of GDEC. (4) To discuss the mechanism for long-term cooperation and maintain a sharing platform for research output. 29
