The China International Development Cooperation Agency (CIDCA), branded as China Aid,[1] is the foreign aid and international development agency of the People's Republic of China. It is a deputy ministerial-level agency affiliated with the State Council.[2] Its headquarters are in Dongcheng District.[3]

History

On 17 March 2018, the first session of the 13th National People's Congress adopted a plan that stipulated the creation of CIDCA.[4] On 18 April 2018, the CIDCA held an unveiling ceremony at which director of the Central Foreign Affairs Commission Yang Jiechi and Minister of Foreign Affairs Wang Yi delivered a speech. After the unveiling ceremony, the CIDCA held its founding meeting.[5]

The agency was created to "achieve better coordination and greater impact" of China's aid programs, particularly in support of the Belt and Road Initiative. It was formerly the Department of Foreign Aid of the Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM).[6][7]

Former vice foreign minister Luo Zhaohui was appointed CIDCA's governor in 2021.[8]: 74 

In December 2021, the joint Measures for the Administration of Foreign Aid issued by CIDCA, MOFCOM, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs state that CIDCA is in charge of drafting aid polices, guidelines, annual plans, and budgets.[8]: 146–147  According to the Measures,MOFCOM is in charge of implementing foreign aid projects and selecting the firms to undertake them while the Ministry of Foreign Affairs makes recommendations based on diplomatic needs and its consulates and embassies supervise overseas projects.[8]: 146–147 

As of at least 2024, CIDCA has placed greater emphasis on using foreign aid to advance foreign policy objectives as opposed to foreign trade objectives.[8]: 18
