"Currently land use is a hot topic in China and public participation is a weak point. This program linked these issues together and provided Chinese scholars and officials an introduction to the American experience of these issues. The program provided excellent lessons China could learn from to reasonably resolve problems of fairness as we continue our development." -- Quote from a Chinese delegation participant
