Dui Hua 2010 Annual Report Published

The 2010 Annual Report (PDF) of The Dui Hua Foundation has been published. Last year was an eventful and challenging year for the foundation. All in all, we have maintained a productive dialogue with the Chinese government, and strengthened our ties with governments and NGOs who have an interest in human rights issues. Support from our many friends around the world have helped make possible a year of achievement.

We have tried to give a concise but comprehensive account of our activities and our vision in our annual report. We hope that it inspires you. As always, we welcome comments on our work.

Excerpts from the Annual Report

Letter from Executive Director

Every year, I travel tens of thousands of miles to speak to students, legislators, lawyers, and journalists across the United States, Europe, and Asia. While I am constantly engaging different audiences, I am frequently asked the same question: How is it that, at a time when bilateral human rights exchanges have become so difficult, the Chinese government continues to work with Dui Hua?

Programs and Activities

In 2010, Dui Hua continued its efforts to raise individual cases of concern directly with the Chinese government, and indirectly via the United Nations and governments that hold bilateral rights dialogues with China. In addition, we received an invitation to testify before the Congressional-Executive Commission on China, sent a historic juvenile justice delegation to China, and increased UN engagement through our research and consultative status.
