Bentley<\/strong><\/a>, a former diplomat and now research associate&nbsp;at&nbsp;York&nbsp;University\u2019s&nbsp;Centre for Asian Research (YCAR),&nbsp;spent three months in

the\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/research\/ycar\/china-insights-fund\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">China Insights Fund<\/a>,\u202f administered&nbsp;by&nbsp;YCAR&nbsp;with funding from&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/research\/ycar\/abmp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Asian Business and Management Program (ABMP<\/a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;a Taiwan Fellowship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bentley\u2019s&nbsp;study&nbsp;shows&nbsp;that Taiwan offers&nbsp;an open academic environment where Canadians can gain&nbsp;important&nbsp;insights into the Sinosphere.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite&nbsp;reduced&nbsp;exchanges&nbsp;between Taiwan and mainland China&nbsp;over the past decade, Bentley found&nbsp;many&nbsp;scholars in Taiwan continue&nbsp;to engage&nbsp;with counterparts&nbsp;across the&nbsp;Taiwan&nbsp;Strait, providing&nbsp;informed analysis on diverse point of views&nbsp;within the Chinese-speaking world.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis&nbsp;research is particularly timely as Canada continues to face a sustained need for individuals with strong China competencies,\u201d&nbsp;says&nbsp;Bentley.&nbsp;\u201cCanada will benefit from having more people who&nbsp;understand developments in China, are proficient in Mandarin and are familiar with&nbsp;a range of perspectives within the&nbsp;Sinosphere.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such&nbsp;expertise&nbsp;can be developed&nbsp;in&nbsp;both mainland China and Taiwan, she adds, noting&nbsp;those seeking&nbsp;an&nbsp;alternative&nbsp;to the&nbsp;People\u2019s Republic of China\u202fshould&nbsp;consider Taiwan as a springboard for this endeavour.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>YCAR and ABMP\u00a0support research that strengthens Asia-focused knowledge, fosters cross-cultural understanding and advances informed Canadian engagement with the Indo-Pacific through initiatives\u00a0like\u00a0the\u00a0China Insights Fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bentley\u2019s findings highlight Taiwan\u2019s role&nbsp;in helping Canadians build the&nbsp;expertise&nbsp;needed to navigate an increasingly complex regional and global landscape.&nbsp;Her research&nbsp;also&nbsp;underscores&nbsp;the importance of studying Taiwan on its own terms, including its economic development, technological capabilities&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;its democratic&nbsp;and social transformation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;full report, along with&nbsp;resources&nbsp;on&nbsp;Sinosphere studies&nbsp;and&nbsp;Canada-Taiwan academic
