CUSEF hosted rounds of China-U.S. Rule of Law Dialogue, bringing together U.S. and Chinese law experts and scholars in discussion and research on China’s legal system.

The concept of the “Pacific Community” was proposed by Dr. Henry Kissinger in his book On China, in which he extoled China and United States to advance the enterprise of shared goals and purposes in order to build peace and prosperity in the region, which is also in line with President Xi’s idea of “Community of Common Destiny”. This is a multi-year initiative, the first phase of the “Pacific Community Initiative” last about three years and yielded a white paper to be submitted for endorsement by the Chinese and U.S. governments.

CUSEF is an established partner of the Sanya Initiative, also known as the U.S.-China Military-to-Military Dialogue. The annual closed-door discussion gathers retired four-star generals and naval admirals. This is a critical framework in uncertain times for international security. The first meeting was held in Sanya of Hainan, China in 2008.

CUSEF facilitates opportunities for the U.S. and Chinese political leaders to have candid exchanges on bilateral issues and jointly explore solutions to tackle problems. The first of this annual meeting was held in 2010.

Starting from 2010, CUSEF brings the U.S. and Chinese economists and scholars together every year to study the global and bilateral economic policy issues.
