UK National Committee on China

Our vision is for a self-reliant UK, where decisions on our political, economic and cultural engagement with China are made through sophisticated, balanced debate drawing on robust research and commentary.

We promote understanding through research, debate and education across the UK’s nations and regions. We support those who are already, or could become, Britain’s leading talents on China.

We deliver impact by behaving, at all times, as a system builder. Our mission is best served by working with individuals and organisations who share our interest in the future of UK China relations.

Our goal is to drive curiosity and stimulate questioning in government, business and civil society, in order to help people across all of the UK answer the question of how to best understand and engage with China.

Our strategy is to build a trusted non-profit that assesses the rigour of commentary and research on China; convenes discussions at the regional and national level; and funds individuals and organisations doing great work on UK China issues.

As a non-profit organisation, we are flexible, open, questioning and relentless in the pursuit of improving understanding. We value rigour; independence; transparency and engagement.
