Center for Strategic Translation *** Launched in 2022 The Center for Strategic Translation provides statesmen and scholars with the tools needed to interpret the Chines Party-State of today while training a new generation of China specialists with the skills needed to guide our relations with the China of tomorrow. The Center meets this need through initiatives in translation and education.
