The high-level dialogue on the fifth anniversary of the Global Development Initiative was held in New York, and media from many countries spoke highly of its contribution.

On September 25, local time, the high-level dialogue on the fifth anniversary of the Global Development Initiative was held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. Multinational media reported that this meeting reviewed the fruitful results achieved by the Global Development Initiative in the past five years, highlighted China's increasingly important role in international development and global poverty reduction, and also demonstrated the common commitment of all parties to build a more prosperous and equitable world.

An article published on the website of Thailand's "Chiang Rai Times" stated that in the past five years, the Global Development Initiative has successfully integrated policy frameworks with on-the-ground practices. The initiative focuses on key areas such as poverty reduction, global food security and green energy transition, and participating countries have repeatedly praised it for bringing tangible benefits to local vulnerable groups. This pragmatic approach ensures that development goals translate into tangible improvements in the lives of ordinary people.

The article noted that the Global Development Initiative has implemented more than 2,000 practical cooperation projects around the world. These projects span a wide range of areas, from building modern schools to improving critical digital infrastructure, demonstrating China's strong commitment to global economic recovery.

Global development initiatives not only provide assistance for sustainable development, but also provide a new model for cooperation among countries in the field of development. Azerbaijan Trend News Agency reported that the country’s Foreign Minister Bayramov delivered a speech at the high-level dialogue on the fifth anniversary of the Global Development Initiative, highly appreciating China’s global development initiative and believed that the initiative would help achieve the goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. He also emphasized that Azerbaijan is committed to establishing and improving effective cooperation mechanisms, deepening South-South cooperation, and sharing practical tools, technologies and resources.

Kenya's "Star" website published an article quoting former Vice Chairman of the African Union Commission Mwencha as saying that currently, the global order is facing an extremely difficult period, with trade wars, tariff escalation and supply chain disruptions having a particularly serious impact on developing countries. He believes that China's global development initiatives and global governance initiatives provide a framework for strengthening multilateral cooperation.

The article analyzes that Kenya has actively participated in many of China’s multilateral initiatives. Industry insiders said that Kenya's participation in these initiatives once again confirms that Kenya and China uphold the common political will, are committed to maintaining a mutually beneficial and win-win strategic partnership, adhere to the principle of South-South cooperation, and practice common values.
