DESCRIPTION:Chinese resource extraction in Southeast Asia, an integral component of its broader Belt and Road (BRI) Strategy, is driven by the need to secure access to raw materials from oil, gas, and minerals (including rare earths) to rubber, coal, and palm oil. Such activities, which have intensified in recent decades, not only embroil local government elites in transnational economic networks but also exact profound environmental and social impacts on the places where they take place. These resource extraction and\nassociated infrastructure projects have destroyed forests, contaminated groundwater, and reduced biodiversity across Southeast Asia. Our webinar offers local perspectives on Chinese extractive industries in Southeast Asia, drawing from both academic and policy fields.
