Poverty Elimination: a People-Centered Approach to Development

China.org.cnUpdated: May 13, 2021

脱贫攻坚是以人民为中心发展思想的重要体现

在中共十八届五中全会上,习近平首次提出以人民为中心的发展思想。以人民为中心的发展思想,体现了中国共产党全心全意为人民服务的根本宗旨,体现了人民是推动发展的根本力量的唯物史观,体现了逐步实现共同富裕的目标要求。以人民为中心的发展思想,不能只停留在口头上、止步于思想环节,而要体现在经济社会发展各个环节。

在做好扶贫开发工作中,充分体现以人民为中心的发展思想,支持困难群众摆脱贫困,使发展成果更多更公平惠及全体人民,是中国共产党坚持全心全意为人民服务根本宗旨的重要体现,也是党和政府的职责所在。

习近平强调,脱贫攻坚必须依靠人民群众,组织和支持贫困群众自力更生,发挥人民群众主动性。要防止忽视贫困群众主体作用,贫困群众既是脱贫攻坚的对象,更是脱贫致富的主体。要注重扶贫同扶志扶智相结合,把贫困群众的积极性和主动性充分调动起来,引导贫困群众树立主体意识,发扬自力更生精神,激发改变贫困面貌的干劲和决心,变“要我脱贫”为“我要脱贫”,靠自己的努力改变命运。

Poverty Elimination: a People-Centered Approach to Development

Xi Jinping raised the idea of a people-centered approach to development at the fifth plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee. This approach echoes the CPC's founding mission of serving the people wholeheartedly, and reflects the belief that the people are the driving force behind development and the goal of common prosperity.

This must not fall victim to lip service or idle reflection, but be put into practice in all areas of social and economic development. In particular, it must be applied in helping the poor emerge from poverty, so that all the Chinese people can enjoy fully and fairly the benefits brought by development. This is where the duty of the CPC and the government lies.

Xi Jinping has emphasized the people's initiative in China's poverty elimination. Impoverished people are both the recipients of assistance and the main actors in fighting poverty. They must be motivated with more confidence, resolution and necessary skills to change their conditions, so that they will abandon the mindset of "others want me to fight poverty" and turn to "I want to fight poverty" and try to improve their lot through their own efforts.
