In October 2004, China Charity Federation - CCF - hosted an
International Charity Law Comparative Seminar in Beijing, China's
capital city, of which The Aga Khan Development Network was a
principal sponsor. CCF is an autonomous non-governmental organization,
established with the approval of the Chinese Government in April 1984,
to engage in nationwide charity work. Its work, since then, in
disaster and poverty relief, education and health support for the weak
and improved income conditions, for example through better sheep
raising in the mountain areas in Guizhow Province, have earned CCF
government and national recognition.

The three-day seminar, from 12th to 14th October, 2004, was an
opportunity for officials and experts in China to exchange experience
and views with their international counterparts on the challenge of
determining how to reform and develop the country's philanthropic
sector. Referring to the ongoing reforming context under which "China
has developed into a society of laws" and is "opening to the outside
world", CCF President, Mr. Fan Baojun, underlined that "law-making in
respect of charity is far from perfect, and hence there is an urgent
need for state legislation in order to regulate all charity activities".

The AKDN was represented at the seminar by Shams Vellani, its Special
Projects Director. In view of the national standing of CCF and the
importance the Government attaches to this programme of reform, the
seminar's inaugural session and the first working session were held at
the Great Hall of the People. Mr. Vellani was one of the speakers at
the inaugural session (speech at the inaugural session) held in the
presence of Government Ministers, Senior Party members and other
officials. He also delivered a short address on the theme of
Philanthropy in Islam as an introduction to AKDN, at the first working
session that followed the seminar's inauguration.

With support from the Ford Foundation, another principal sponsor, the
seminar was co-organized by International Center for Not-for-Profit
Law and Brigham Young University Law School, USA. NuSkin (China),
General Motors Corporation China, Brigham Young University Law School,
United Way International, and LDS Charity were major sponsors while
Operation Blessing/CBN, A Child's Hope Foundation, and Morrison and
Forester LLP also supported the seminar as sponsors.
