China's rapid economic development has dramatically transformed the country's social and environmental landscape in recent decades. Such changes call for interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative methods of inquiry. This one-day conference will bring together scholars from China, North America and the UK to explore issues affecting the natural environment, public health, and human welfare in China through a variety of theoretical frameworks, research methodologies, and practical experiences. CHEW (China's Health, Environment and Welfare) is pleased to announce that Dr. Michael Hathaway, Associate Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Simon Fraser University, will be our keynote speaker. His talk, 'The Emergence of Global Environmentalism in China' will address how global environmentalism has been reshaping rural China over the past two decades, and how activities in China have, in turn, reshaped what we imagine to be global environmentalism. We are delighted to provide lunch free for our audience with the support of Green Templeton College and the University of Oxford! *CONTACT*: Further information: email [log in to unmask]<http://facebook.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0af9b9aa6fdbae41a92a723f7&id=7a26e79384&e=4dc7f47d91> *LINK**S: * Register here F<http://facebook.us3.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=0af9b9aa6fdbae41a92a723f7&id=cb3645215c&e=4dc7f47d91>ull schedule<http://facebook.us3.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=0af9b9aa6fdbae41a92a723f7&id=ae553593b5&e=4dc7f47d91> mailing list<http://facebook.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0af9b9aa6fdbae41a92a723f7&id=b5ccda4162&e=4dc7f47d91> Facebook group<http://facebook.us3.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=0af9b9aa6fdbae41a92a723f7&id=b16cdff795&e=4dc7f47d91> . _________________________________________________________________ To send your message to China Postgraduate Network mailing list, forward it to: [log in to unmask] To subscribe, make amendments to subscription or view previous posts visit: www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/cpn <https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=cpn> For further information, comments or enquiries regarding the CPN, email us at: [log in to unmask] -- Dr Sarah Dauncey British Academy Mid-Career Fellow & Lecturer in Chinese Studies School of East Asian Studies University of Sheffield http://www.shef.ac.uk/seas/ Honorary Secretary, British Association for Chinese Studies Co-Editor, Journal of the British Association for Chinese Studies (JBACS) http://www.bacsuk.org.uk/ Disability Studies at the University of Sheffield: http://disabilityuos.wordpress.com/ 6-8 Shearwood Road Sheffield, S10 2TD United Kingdom Tel: +44 (0)114 22 28436 Fax: +44 (0)114 22 28432
