Chinese Public Diplomacy Activities

China’s Global Public Diplomacy Dashboard Dataset, Version 3.0

This dataset is composed of first-of-its-kind quantifiable data on People's Republic of China's (PRC) global public diplomacy efforts from a series of AidData's reports (i.e.,Ties That Bind, Influencing the Narrative, Silk Road Diplomacy, Listening to Leaders 2021 and Corridors of Power) and datasets (i.e., AidData's Global Chinese Development Finance Dataset, Version 2.0 and China Global Public Diplomacy Dataset Version 1.6). This includes metrics for five types of public diplomacy (i.e., financial, cultural, elite-to-elite, exchange, informational diplomacy) and PRC technical assistance initiatives. It also includes several measures of how China is perceived by leaders in countries that receive its Public Diplomacy overtures. Using this dashboard, you can create custom data sets, maps, and graphs based on the type of public diplomacy, recipient countries, and time periods in which you are specifically interested.
