The Leiden Asia Centre published in October 2021 a major study titled "Chinese Approaches to Overseas Responsible Business: Insights from the DRC Cobalt Industry" by Stacey Links, Tycho de Feijter, and Jonas Lammertink.
Part I of the report discusses the features of Chinese approaches to responsible business, predominantly defined in China as corporate social responsibility. Part II investigates how the findings of Part I unfold in practice by analyzing Chinese responsible business approaches in the cobalt mining sector of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
