Welcome to our latest edition of China Voices, a quarterly update on freedom of religion or belief (FoRB) in China.
From July to September 2023, CSW recorded 83 incidents of violations affecting religious or belief groups throughout China. Highlights include world famous mosques ‘Sinicized’, yet another new religious regulation now in force, a credit scheme for religious personnel being tried out, coordinated arrest operations against banned religious groups, and restrictions on Tibetans attending key Buddhist events.
