Open-source Chinese language research is core to understanding Chinese government, industry, and social perspectives. However, maintaining records of those sources and staying on top of potential data sources is an ongoing challenge.

Emily Weinstein, research analyst at CSET, and Dr. Tai Ming Cheung, director of the UC Institute on Global Conflict and Cooperation at UCSD, will open the discussion, sharing their best practices for conducting open source language research for the first 20 minutes. The discussion will then open to the wider USCF participants to share their insights on best sources, research methods, etc.
