The fight against poverty is far from over.
According to the UN, one in ten people worldwide still lives in extreme poverty, with 71 percent of those affected concentrated in sub-Saharan Africa.
Between 2013 and 2020, China has lifted nearly 100 million rural residents out of poverty. Today, more than 32 million of them are employed.
China's poverty reduction efforts have extended beyond its borders.
Building on its experience in eliminating extreme poverty at home, China is working with other developing countries on agricultural technology, skills training and clean water projects.
