4. Funded Research Projects

on a multiple-case study approach, this 30-month research project will employ

an in-depth look at the forms, processes, and consequences of the Chinese health
rights defence actions, in both real and virtual space. Six active health rights
defence groups are selected for online observations and in-depth interviews. This

study will make theoretical and empirical contributions to the literature on social

movements, civil society, and contentious politics. It will also deliver deep insights
for scholars, social activists, and policy makers on domestic and global health
governance.
