Over the past eight years, the party and the people have overcome all obstacles, weathered the wind and rain, carried forward the spirit of nailing nails, dared to gnaw hard bones, and conquered one after another, and made major historic achievements in poverty alleviation.

Based on China’s national conditions and grasping the laws of poverty reduction, we have introduced a series of unconventional policy measures, built a set of effective policy systems, work systems, and institutional systems, embarked on a path of poverty reduction with Chinese characteristics, and formed anti-poverty with Chinese characteristics. theory.

Mainly: adhere to the party’s leadership and provide strong political and organizational guarantees for poverty alleviation; adhere to the people-centered development ideology and unswervingly follow the path of common prosperity; adhere to the political advantages of the Chinese socialist system that can concentrate forces on major issues, Form a common will and action for poverty alleviation; adhere to a precise poverty alleviation strategy and use development methods to eliminate the root causes of poverty; adhere to mobilize the enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity of the poor to stimulate the endogenous motivation of poverty alleviation; adhere to promote the virtues of mutual assistance, solidarity and mutual assistance, and create A strong atmosphere for the whole society to help the poor; insist on seeking truth and being pragmatic, and be pragmatic, and achieve real poverty alleviation, real poverty alleviation, and real poverty alleviation.
