Introduction to Chinese and Indian Political and Economic Engagement with South Africa Study Trip

Dear Readers,

From January 13-22, 2016, the US-India-China Initiative of the  South Asia Studies Program of The Johns Hopkins University Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) will be sponsoring a study trip to Johannesburg and Cape Town, South Africa where nine graduate students will be exploring the topic of Chinese and Indian investment in South Africa. The trip participants are students in Gregory Knight and Dr. Walter Andersen's Rise of India and China course offered in the Fall of 2015. To learn more about what the students are seeing and experiencing on the study trip stay tuned over the next few weeks to the various blog posts from the participants themselves.

This is the fourth study trip sponsored by the US-India-China Initiative. Previous trips include:

Yangon, Myanmar: Chinese and India Investment in Myanmar (2015)
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: Chinese and Indian Aid and Investment in Ethiopia (2014)
Shanghai and Beijing, China: Sino-Indian Relations (2013)

Meet the Student Participants!
