AidData has a proven track record of designing rigorous and replicable methods to analyze China's expanding portfolio of overseas investments and soft power activities—from infrastructure projects to public diplomacy initiatives. We organize convenings of leading policymakers and scholars; conduct outreach to media outlets worldwide; provide custom analysis to senior public sector decision-makers; and collaborate with an international network of researchers to publish peer-reviewed articles and books as well as influential policy reports, such as Banking on Beijing, Corridors of Power, Banking on the Belt and Road, How China Lends, Silk Road Diplomacy, and Ties that Bind.
