Jintao Xu is currently a professor of natural resource economics at the College of Environmental Sciences and Engineering, Peking University (since 2006). Before joining Peking University he worked as Deputy Director and professor at the Center for Chinese Agricultural Policy, Chinese Academy of Sciences for six years. In 2000 and 2004 he led studies in the socio-economic impacts of China’s ecological programs (i.e. the Sloping Land Conversion Program and Natural Forest Protection Programs). Currently his research focuses on surveys and analyses of forest tenure and regulatory reform in rural China. His papers have been published in journals such as Environmental and Development Economics, World Development, Land Economics, Ecological Economics, and International Forestry Review.
Jintao Xu has been active in policy dialogue and consultation in China’s forest and environmental sectors. He was Coordinator of the Taskforce of Forest and Grassland under the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development (CCICED) (2000-2002) and later a member of several other taskforces under CCICED. Currently he is the leader of the Environmental Economics Program in China (EEPC) based at Peking University, one of the six (EfD) world centers sponsored by Swedish SIDA. With EEPC he is building capacity to conduct rigorous economic analysis into China’s environmental and natural resource policies.
