Relocation of Rural Poor for Poverty Alleviation

China.org.cnUpdated: May 13, 2021

易地搬迁扶贫

易地搬迁是“五个一批”精准脱贫的重要内容,是中共中央发出脱贫攻坚战总动员后的第一仗,也是中国打赢脱贫攻坚战的重要内容。《中共中央 国务院关于打赢脱贫攻坚战的决定》提出,实施易地搬迁脱贫,对居住在生存条件恶劣、生态环境脆弱、自然灾害频发等地区的农村贫困人口,加快实施易地扶贫搬迁工程。

易地搬迁属于生态扶贫和绿色减贫的范畴,其主要原因就是易地搬迁应遵循自然规律与经济规律,对于生态环境较差的地区,实施保护型减贫策略,通过搬迁、因地制宜确定安置方式来改善贫困人口的客观生存环境,有效缓解扶贫开发造成的环境破坏,促进当地经济社会的可持续发展。根据规划,“十三五”时期中国将对约1000万建档立卡贫困人口实施易地扶贫搬迁。截至2019年年末,易地扶贫搬迁建设任务基本完成。

Relocation of Rural Poor for Poverty Alleviation

Relocating those living under adverse natural conditions is one of China's five targeted measures in battling poverty. The Decision on Winning the Battle Against Poverty provides special plans on accelerating the relocation of rural poor who live under unfavorable natural conditions, in fragile eco-environments, or in areas suffering frequent disasters.

This relocation is a green pathway as it follows the natural rules and dynamics of the economy. For areas with fragile eco-environments, conservation is a wise tactic to avoid further damage caused by development while improving the living conditions of the poor by removing them to better locations. This can effectively promote local sustainable economic and social development.

China planned to relocate 10 million people registered as living below the poverty line during the 13th Five-year Plan period (2016-2020). By the end of 2019, it had roughly completed this task.
