Increase the reach and impact of China scholarship – we need to go together and faster

In this blog post, Matthias Stepan shares some observations from the CHERN training school “China Scholarship and Policy Advice: How to Reach (Out to) Policymakers”. He concludes with a collection of recommendations that might be of interest to early-career China scholars who want to increase the policy impact of their research.

We are all on our individual journeys as learning beings, but this does not necessarily mean we must go alone. As indicated in some of the recommendations below, going together is more conducive to making headway in increasing the impact and reach of China scholarship.
