Beijing, The People's Republic of China 10 Dec 2025

The 2025 International Seminar on Global Poverty Reduction Partnerships was held in Beijing on Wednesday, announcing the list of award-winning case studies from the sixth call of the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices. With the theme “Strengthening Partnerships to Address Poverty Reduction Challenges,” the seminar aimed to explore collaborative approaches for advancing global poverty alleviation. 

Individuals and representatives of organizations that submitted case studies during the sixth call of the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices and other attendees pose with award certificates at the event.

Initially launched by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), China Internet Information Center (CIIC), International Poverty Reduction Center in China (IPRCC), World Bank (WB), and three United Nations Rome-based agencies, namely, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), and the World Food Programme (WFP) in 2018, the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices was created in order to encourage individuals and organizations around the world to submit case studies that may serve as inspiring reference material. The campaign is also an attempt to contribute to the formation of innovative global poverty alleviation partnerships that pool the strengths of various parties. 

The seventh round of the Global Solicitation on Best Poverty Reduction Practices is launched at the event.

The sixth call for submissions was launched in October 2024, generating 840 entries from 40 countries and regions. From these entries, the host institutions selected 108 best practices that are sustainable, replicable, practical, and inclusive for vulnerable groups. These selected ones provide valuable models and implementation strategies for those dedicated to poverty reduction efforts worldwide.

The seminar brought together nearly 200 participants from 17 countries and 7 international organizations, including government officials and diplomats stationed in China, and representatives from social groups, research institutions, enterprises and media outlets, as well as international students.
