In early 2018, a US-China trade war broke out with the two countries eventually imposing tariffs worth billions of dollars on each others' imports.

As tensions between the world's two biggest economies continue, analysts warn of potential harm to the global economy.

The IMF predicts that US-China trade tensions will have reduced global GDP by 0.8 percent by the beginning of next year, contributing to slowed global economic growth, which stands at 3 percent for 2019.

Huiyao Wang, the founder and president of the Center for China and Globalization, agrees the trade war "certainly is a big deal" for China, calling the situation "unprecedented".

"China and the US relations this year is exactly 40 years of diplomatic ties," he says.

"China ... largely opened up to the US and actually, for the last four decades, there's bumps, there's up and downs, but not as big a surprise as I expect at this one."

Truth is nature systems are bottom-up open and boundaryless - so must human AI be in 2020s if our species is to be sustainable

our findings recommendations and conclusions will update at valuetrue.com - may your 20020s be transparent and happy wherever you link youth as sdg generation

ChinaCyberCenter.com back in 2017 - afore ye go, know we diaspora scots have distrusted wall ever since emperor hadrian locked us out of Roman Empire - its very kind of china to host summits along the lines of how can we trade with a fifth of the worlds people as if all roads lead to beijing and every other 5g supercity that trust the under 30s world to map a world of trillion times moore tech than the moon race 1960s

if we trusted 20 year old graduates out of every sustainability city then they can host belt road mapping 24/7- why would every city that wants youth to win-win trade make this an open curriculum celebrating their most valued entrepreneurs connecting humanity- we could help youth mooc to broad daylight and end climate crises

I met the editor of global geneva at last unctad summit -is there a  person in any of your networks that might want to join in activating this conclusion:

As one participant noted at last week’s World Economic Forum Cyber Security Conference in Geneva, unless we involve youth, “there is no future.” It is crucial that we help provide youth with a voice, particularly in the face of increasing false news, propaganda and disinformation, all of which represent a dire threat to democracy. This is where we see trusted journalism playing a critical role. 

does anyone know when the mit schwab scholars will actually be visible in their role in humanising AI if not publically at least with other scholars - 5g is being messed up too fast to wait for university's normal cycles

Our main focus is on 'International Geneva' or global themes from humanitarian action, access to health and climate change to innovation, world trade and cultural heritage.

Dear Friends:   We will be soon moving into our 7th print/e-edition of Global Geneva.

We are also delighted to announce new media partnerships with the Rory Peck Trust and Frontline Club (including the Frontline Freelance Registry) in London, both dedicated to promoting quality newsgathering world-wide. (See online cover story by Tira Shubert) We also wish to stress our focus on reaching out to young people. (See latest youth articles by Nikita Artamonov on joining the Swiss army as a 'new' Swiss of expat background and a Breaking In piece by Amanda Norchi on interning in Switzerland). We hope to expand Youth Writes prompted by the exceptional interest in our 2019 Youth Writes Awards. We are seeking volunteers – parents, teachers, concerned citizens – as well as sponsors to help develop this exceptional initiative by setting up Youth Writes Clubs in schools both in Switzerland and abroad. Plus develop our journalism and writing workshops, including weekend writing camps. Two are planned for early 2020, one in Switzerland, the other in Thailand.   As one participant noted at last week’s World Economic Forum Cyber Security Conference in Geneva, unless we involve youth, “there is no future.” It is crucial that we help provide youth with a voice, particularly in the face of increasing false news, propaganda and disinformation, all of which represent a dire threat to democracy.
