Innovations Highlighted at China Poverty Reduction Int’l Forum

Guo Weimin, Vice Minister of State Council Information Office, said that China’s experiences in poverty alleviation are part of the spiritual heritage of humanity. With 700 million people living in poverty worldwide, China should take creative approaches to telling its stories, so as to establish a platform for knowledge-sharing between China and the international community. He also emphasized the role of ICTs in poverty alleviation, saying that the Global Poverty Reduction Online Knowledge Sharing Database is a typical example.
