The Institute for Public Policy at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) is soliciting papers for a workshop, “Reforming Public Hospitals in China: Emerging Models and Policy Options,” held in Hong Kong from Aug. 24-25, 2017. The workshop, led by an organizing committee with Shorenstein APARC’s Karen Eggleston, will result in an edited volume or a special issue of China Policy Journal, a new open access journal by the Policy Studies Organization.
 
Both quantitative and qualitative papers are welcomed; priority will be given to research that focuses on policy intervention of a specific locality or compares practices of multiple local initiatives. Selected paper presenters will receive economy airfare and accommodation paid for by HKUST’s Institute for Public Policy. 
 
Abstract submissions should be 300 words in length and provide a summary of the paper’s main arguments and conclusions. The deadline for submission is April 15, 2017, to Eliza Tang at eliza@ust.hk.
