Charhar Public Diplomacy series
Charhar has six centers:
Center for Peace of Korean Peninsula
The center focuses on North Korea's nuclear program, China-South Korea relations, China-North Korea relations and inter-Korean relations. In 2017, the center hosted 50-plus events in both China and South Korea. Through these events, Dr. Han Fangming and other Charhar leaders befriended Korean politicians, religious leaders, and business executives.
Center for Himalayan Studies
Famous for its biodiversity and culture, the Himalayan region, however, is one of the least developed regions in the world. Tibet is one of China’s poorest regions. How can China's foreign policy make Tibet richer? The center gathers notable experts from multiple backgrounds to address this important issue.
The center hosts events that help Chinese understand South Asian countries, their international status, and their legitimate interests and requests. We also work to enable South Asians understand China and its legitimate interests and requests.
