As China continues its rise, the actions of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) have implications across the globe and the need for transparency is increasingly important. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, the CCP has often withheld, manipulated, and falsified data for its own purposes. In 2020, The Heritage Foundation launched an initiative to shed light on alternative sources of transparency.

As part of that initiative, The Heritage Foundation is excited to announce the upcoming release of the 2021 China Transparency Report. This report will be the inaugural launch of Heritage’s annual assessment on the current state of transparency, both official and private, vis-à-vis China across eight categories. Please join us as we take an exclusive sneak peak of findings from this report, featuring keynote remarks from U.S. Representative Steve Chabot and Q&A discussions with contributors to the report
