Grant Description: The USAID Regional Development Mission/Asia (RDM/A) seeks to support U.S. academic institutions and consortia as they engage with higher education associations and institutions in China to: 1. collaboratively address the full array of complex economic, social, educational, and development issues and challenges related to the rule of law; 2. strengthen their respective capacities for teaching, research, and service to address the development priorities needed to securely establish the rule of law; 3. contribute to the preparation of a responsible citizenry and a skilled workforce engaged in a global marketplace governed by the rule of law; 4. increase attention to and understanding of international education and rule of law development issues on campuses and among the institutions constituencies; and, 5. disseminate information on the rule of law and share results of development cooperation both abroad and in the United States. Through this program, USAID RDM/A hopes to link the technical and human capacity-building strengths of higher education institutions in the United States with their counterparts abroad in China to address the full range of rule of law issues. Legal reform in China is of great importance to China and to the world. Legal reform can enhance economic development, advance human rights, contribute to political reform, counter corruption, and improve Chinas interactions with the international community. Legal reform in China can be valuable in its own right and can contribute to wider reforms.
