You are cordially invited to attend a breakfast seminar on China’s quest for energy security. Jointly sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment and the World Resources Institute, this seminar begins a series of cooperative research and programming activities devoted to global energy security and climate change with an emphasis on engaging China. One of the most difficult challenges facing China and the world is the dependability of energy supplies defined both in economic and national security terms.
In her remarks, Dr. Kelly Gallagher, a specialist on China’s energy policy, will explore how China is trying to increase its energy security and examine the implications of the policies China is pursuing.
Dr. Gallagher is Director of the Energy Technology Innovation Project (ETIP) of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government. She has a M.A.L.D. and Ph.D. in International Affairs from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University. Her research interests include energy technology innovation, international energy cooperation, energy policy, climate change policy, international environmental policy, and technology transfer/economic development questions. She is the author of China Shifts Gears: Automakers, Oil, Pollution, and Development (MIT Press, 2006).
