Interview with Wang Yaqiu about how Chinese human rights groups can get support and funding in the current political environment
This has become a key issue after the Trump administration cut funding to organisations such as Radio Free Asia and USAID

What does it mean to be a Chinese human rights advocate in 2026? Yaqiu Wang watched DOGE cuts gut reporting on political prisoners, refugee assistance networks, and labor rights work abroad, and argued in ChinaFile that the human rights community must urgently diversify away from U.S. government money. ChinaFile’s Jeremy Goldkorn recently chatted with Wang about the future of human rights work in China and how it will be funded, politics in the Chinese diaspora, women’s rights progress in China that is not captured by indicators, and how the internet and AI are challenging our notions of free speech. Wang exemplifies how being a Chinese person of conscience right now means navigating between two forces that both want to define you—and finding agency in refusing both definitions.

The ease of breaking trust here with AI is the really key thing. There's enough noise and FUD in threat intelligence already
