The Law of the People’s Republic of China on Administration of Domestic Activities of Overseas Non-Governmental Organizations in the Mainland of China (the “Overseas NGO Law”) requires foreign NGOs to maintain a registered representative office in China or to file documentation for temporary activities in order to conduct, or fund activities conducted, in mainland China. As the GHIT Fund does not currently maintain a representative office in China, and the existing legal framework does not adequately provide a workable framework for the types of projects supported by the GHIT Fund, the GHIT Fund is, in principle, not in a position to provide funding (grants) for project activities conducted in mainland China.
