About [Edit]
China Development Brief, established in 1996, is an independent, non-profit publication devoted to strengthening constructive engagement between China and other countries.
Our core, English language product is a monthly, electronic newsletter that reports on environment, social development and civil society in China to a readership of decision and opinion makers in international development agencies, NGOs, research academies, policy think-tanks and mass media.
We are not a mass communications medium, setting out to describe and interpret China for a general, foreign readership. Rather, we are deliberately specialist, targeting international readers whose job means they need to understand China. More specifically, we write not for international investors seeking business opportunities, but for agencies and individuals that are attempting to contribute to China’s sustainable development and global integration. Our subscribers include multilateral financial institutions, foreign government donor agencies, grant-making foundations, international NGOs and some leading, private companies that are beginning to take seriously the notion of ‘corporate social responsibility.’
Over the last ten years we have gained a reputation for informed and accurate reporting and balanced, objective analysis that gives serious and sympathetic consideration to the development challenges faced by the government and people of China.
In addition to the regular, English language publication, we publish occasional directories profiling international and Chinese NGOs, and periodic, free-standing Special Reports – ranging from profiles of Chinese provinces to research studies based on original field work.
China Development Brief was originally established by Nick Young, a British citizen living in China, who had previously worked in Latin America and Africa as a reporter for mainstream international media.
Chinese sister
In 2001 we established a Chinese language sister publication. This is not a translation of the English edition. It is written in Chinese by Chinese staff, and in the main comprises entirely original material. (Chinese and English edition staff, however, often jointly research the same topic or story, then write separate, English and Chinese language articles, geared to the perspective of the different readerships.)
