This project will develop a socio-cultural understanding of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, the flagship project of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), through an ethnographic examination of the donkey trade with China. The research will produce fine-grained data on the impacts of the massive export of donkeys on the work, livelihoods, and health-seeking behaviour of marginalised populations in Pakistan. Expected outcomes include enhanced understanding of Chinese mega projects on host countries. It will benefit Australian and international policymakers seeking to develop a grounded understanding of BRI and its broader implications for the Indo-Pacific region, including the risk of zoonotic diseases associated with animal trade.

该项目将通过对与中国的驴贸易进行人种学研究，培养对中国“一带一路”倡议旗舰项目--中巴经济走廊的社会文化理解。该研究将产生关于大规模出口驴子对巴基斯坦边缘化人口的工作，生计和寻求健康行为的影响的精细数据。预期成果包括加强对中国大型项目对东道国的了解。这将有利于澳大利亚和国际政策制定者寻求建立对BRI及其对印太地区更广泛影响的基础理解，包括与动物贸易相关的人畜共患病风险。
