Initiated in 2018 by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the China Internet Information Center (CIIC), the International Poverty Reduction Center in China (IPRCC), the World Bank (WB), and three Rome-based UN agencies -- the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), and the World Food Programme (WFP) -- the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices aims to inspire individuals and organizations worldwide to submit case studies that can serve as valuable reference materials. This initiative also seeks to foster innovative global partnerships in poverty alleviation, leveraging the strengths of various stakeholders.
The sixth round of the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices is launched at the ceremony.
The fifth call for submissions was launched in November 2023, generating 1,012 entries from 37 countries and regions, including Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Pakistan, Jordan, Spain, Germany, Greece, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Sao Tome and Principe, Burundi, the Kingdom of Tonga, Fiji and China. From these entries, the seven host institutions selected 105 best practices that are sustainable, operable, replicable, and based on practical scenarios. These selected ones provide valuable models and implementation strategies for those dedicated to poverty reduction efforts worldwide.
