Development is an eternal theme of human society. As the largest developing country in the world, China is constantly working to promote its own sustainable development and gradually resolve the problems of unbalanced and inadequate development. At the same time, China is actively promoting the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by the G20, promoting inclusive development. China plans to reduce global inequality and imbalance, and improve the well-being of mankind all around the world by supporting industrialization in Africa and other developing countries, improving energy access, developing inclusive finance, and encouraging youth entrepreneurship.
