Ethiopia and the Road Ahead
Chinese investment in Africa has built roads, railways, dams, and more, spurring new interest and competition from other global investors. Critics say China’s too often exploitative, including with loans that leave some countries too deeply in debt. But its investments helped famine-prone Ethiopia become one of the world’s fastest growing economies. Now, however, civil strife is putting that success at risk, for both Ethiopia and China.Produced by the <a href="https://globalreportingcentre.org">Global Reporting Centre</a> (GRC), an editorially independent journalism organization based at the <a href="https://jwam.ubc.ca">UBC School of Journalism, Writing, and Media</a>.

The Other Asian Giant: India
China is one of India’s top trading partners, but India has chosen not to be part of China’s New Silk Road. It’s not wild about a future in which China leads Asia, much less the world. So India’s offering its own investments and vision of a more multipolar world. And with Chinese and Indian troops in a tense stand-off on their contested border, India’s strengthening its ties with the US, Japan, Australia and others, to counterbalance China’s influence.Produced by the <a href="https://globalreportingcentre.org">Global Reporting Centre</a> (GRC), an editorially independent journalism organization based at the <a href="https://jwam.ubc.ca">UBC School of Journalism, Writing, and Media</a>.

China’s Digital Silk Road
China is fast becoming a global leader in cutting edge technologies—such as AI, facial recognition, surveillance, and 5G—and is exporting them worldwide. Fans like the high quality and low cost. Critics say China’s technology enables authoritarian control and increases dependence on an autocratic state. They call for democracies, including the U.S., to work together to create a tech ecosystem that protects privacy and freedom of speech.Produced by the <a href="https://globalreportingcentre.org">Global Reporting Centre</a> (GRC), an editorially independent journalism organization based at the <a href="https://jwam.ubc.ca">UBC School of Journalism, Writing, and Media</a>.
