Xiaoling is also active in organizing academic exchange. In Spring 2023, Xiaoling organized two panels with the support of four travel grants: Mabel Duncan Award and Janes A and Jeanne B DeSana Graduate Travel Award from the Department of Geography, the Eaton Graduate Student Research Award from the Center for Humanities & the Arts, and the travel grant from the Graduate and Professional Student Government. She organized and chaired a roundtable panel entitled 鈥�Civic Engagement: Public Health Responses, Material and Digital Spaces, and Politics During the Covid-19 Pandemic in China鈥� for the 2023 Annual Conference of Association for Asian Studies (AAS), with the participation of both senior and emerging China scholars. She also organized a presentation panel titled 鈥�Conceiving Social Media as Spaces鈥� for the 2023 Annual Meeting of the American Association of Geographers (AAG). Geographers conducting research in China, Ghana, Iran, and the United States presented their papers. These two panels provided insights to improve Xiaoling鈥檚 manuscript about civic engagement on Chinese social media platforms (currently under peer review).听
