The 21st Century China Center at the School of Global Policy and Strategy invites the public to attend the opening event for the inaugural UC San Diego Forum on U.S.-China Relations titled "Finding a New Equilibrium: Insights on U.S.-China Ties from High-Level Practitioners."
Confirmed speakers include two former national security advisors in Republican and Democratic administrations Tom Donilon, chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute, and Stephen Hadley, principal of RiceHadleyGates LLC, as well as Consul General Ping Zhang, Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles.
As the bilateral relationship between the U.S. and China enters uncharted waters and a decades-long consensus in favor of engagement frays, the search is on for a new equilibrium. Informed by their rich personal experiences working with China at the highest levels, our speakers will offer insights into how the U.S. and China can restrain competitive excesses, sustain cooperative energies and work out a modus vivendi given their increasingly divergent interests in the 21st century.
Thank you to our sponsors The Asia Group Foundation, Coril Holdings Ltd., East West Bank, Legler Benbough Foundation and Qualcomm, and individual donors Kurt M. Campbell and Anonymous.
A reception will follow the event.

Organized by
The UC San Diego Forum on U.S.-China Relations is the first ongoing high-level forum focused entirely on the U.S.-China relationship. It takes advantage of UC San Diego’s location on the Pacific and the depth of China expertise at the 21st Century China Center at the School of Global Policy and Strategy.
The second forum will be held in La Jolla, California from Jan. 29 to Feb. 2, 2020. The inaugural forum was held in August 2019. Its purpose is to convene an independent and sustaining community of thought leaders and policy experts to foster creative thinking on how to advance U.S.-China relations and bridge the growing gap between Washington, D.C. and Beijing, China.
