The Foreign Correspondents Club of China is the association of Beijing-based professional journalists reporting on China for audiences around the world. Our members are accredited to news organizations in more than two dozen countries and have dedicated themselves to covering one of the most important stories of our time: the modernization of China. Through special events, informal get-togethers and other activities, we strive above all to support each other and make our experiences in China as productive, interesting and enjoyable as possible. We welcome all accredited foreign correspondents to join us as full members, and invite diplomats, public relations specialists, corporate executives, academicians and other interested China-watchers from abroad to join as non-voting associate members.
