Innovative Practice in Green Development

Abstract

Changes to Nanjiang over the past millennium benefited from reform and opening up, especially since the 18th National Congress of the CPC, when Nanjiang County has promoted the innovative path of green development, which boosted poverty alleviation and provided an inexhaustible impetus for the simultaneous promotion of rural revitalization. In the past, the people “boasted valuable assets but wore ragged clothes”; nowadays, by guarding the green waters and mountains, they can continue to develop in a green manner for prosperity and well-being. Nanjiang County, in the hinterland of the Qinling-Daba Mountains, adopted “green development” as a fundamental measure to connect the strategic paths of poverty alleviation and rural revitalization, pioneering a road of rural revitalization that integrates poverty alleviation amid green development, revitalization through green innovation, and sustainable development amid green revitalization.
