In an effort to understand Beijing’s public diplomacy (PD), a research lab and the U.S. Department of State have teamed up to quantify and analyze the Chinese government’s reach and influence.

The ensuing report, “Influencing the Narrative: How the Chinese Government Mobilizes Students and Media to Burnish its Image,” analyzes China’s PD efforts across East Asia-Pacific, the context of China’s regional goals and major tools employed toward these ends. 

The link to the full report, published jointly by AidData, a research lab at the William & Mary Global Research Institute, and the U.S. Department of State, can be found here.
