The same institutions that enabled China’s massive urbanization and spurred its economic growth now require further reform and innovation. To address the issues facing the next phase of the nation’s transformation, the National New Urbanization Plan (2014 – 20) set ambitious targets for sustainable, human-centered, and environmentally friendly urbanization. This panel will discuss key institutional and governance challenges China will face in reaching those goals.
