Grants

Black China Caucus

Project Title

For general support

Date

Jun. 08, 2023

Duration

12 months

Description

The study of U.S. foreign policy has been traditionally limited in terms of diversity and perspectives of underrepresented communities. This has recently led to concerted efforts among funders and practitioners in the field to address this shortcoming through a variety of measures, including by cultivating a next generation of leaders embodying and embracing diversity. With a specific focus on China, Black China Caucus (BCC) identifies and amplifies Black professionals whose range of careers provide new and diverse perspectives about China. Corporation support will allow BCC to continue programs aimed at enhancing a community of over 170 professionals and future China hands through such initiatives as a professional directory, mentorship program, student pipeline program, and professional development opportunities. BCC’s programs will help deepen and expand the presence of Black China experts in the U.S. discourse and policymaking relevant to China.
