His current project is a study of the developments of the Internet and environmental NGOs are two important recent phenomena in China. They have attracted much academic and political interest independently, yet their interactions have not been explored. This project examines how China's environmental NGOs respond to the Internet in their efforts to solve environmental problems and achieve organizational growth. By exploring the role of the Internet in networking, mobilization, citizen education, and the politicization of environmental issues, the analysis will show that the wedding of civil society organizations with new information technologies may strengthen the institutional infrastructures for grassroots democratic participation in China.
