China Audits Nonprofit Groups
June 26, 2006
Chinese officials have been auditing nonprofit groups in what critics say is an effort to intimidate and disrupt their work, reports The San Francisco Chronicle.
The director of one environmental group, Green Watershed, told the Chronicle that the organization has “experienced investigations through almost the whole of last year.” The group has received grants from the Ford Foundation and other large U.S. donors, the paper reports.
