Former governor and ambassador to both China and Russia, Jon M. Huntsman, Jr., will be the featured speaker for CHINA Town Hall 2022, a national conversation on how the U.S.-China relationship affects our cities, towns, and communities, on November 16. From supply chains to national security, new technologies to climate change, the future of both countries will be determined by their relations with one another and the global community.
Tucson will join more than 80 venues across the country for the program, which will feature Ambassador Huntsman in conversation with National Committee on U.S.-China Relations President Stephen Orlins.
After the conversation with Ambassador Huntsman, we will have an in-person presentation by Dr. Janelle Lamoreaux, Associate Professor of Anthropology, followed by a Q&A moderated Dr. David Pietz, Professor of History and UNESCO Chair in Environmental History, on U.S.-China relations and the related issues that are having an impact on the University of Arizona, the communities on and around our campus, and the people in Arizona.
Established in 1966, the National Committee on United States-China Relations is the leading American non-profit, non-partisan public affairs organization devoted to building constructive relations between the United States and Greater China.
