From April to June 2019, the Universities Service Centre for China Studies (USC) organised six luncheon seminars on topics of civil society, rural governance, Chinese fiscal system, and many other issues. The seminars attracted over 100 participants, including local, Mainland and overseas undergraduates and postgraduates, scholars from various academic institutions, journalists, staff of non-governmental organizations, and members of the general public. Many insightful comments and questions were raised during the discussion sessions.
