Some of China’s most recognised philanthropic leaders gathered in Beijing from 5-9 July for the launch of the China Foundation Center. The Center aims to help increase the transparency of Chinese charitable groups, which have sometimes struggled with public suspicion of mismanagement and even corruption.

The organisation looks to bolster trust in Chinese foundations by making information about their activities available to the public—thus hopefully encouraging more participation in charitable work. The Center’s website will initially archive data on more than 1,800 foundations across China.
