Since China began sci-tech poverty alleviation in 1986, it has gone through more than 30 years of exploration and practice. Over the past decades, China has eliminated extreme poverty, lifted more than 800 million people out of poverty, and brought more than 400 million people into the middle-income group. 

This is a miracle in the history of human civilization, and has far-reaching implications for global human rights governance. More and more developing countries can learn from China's experience of poverty alleviation from the perspective of promoting human rights.

Today, China is at the forefront of poverty eradication in the world. This is a great encouragement and inspiration to all other developing countries because almost all of them face the challenge of eradicating poverty, such as the Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) countries.

Gustavo Pacheco Villar, president of the Andean Parliament, said both China and LAC countries have made significant contributions to human rights. Both should formulate policies to address present-day challenges such as war, international trade and food security.

According to a report released at the first China-Latin America Human Rights Roundtable in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on September 10, titled Common Goals: China-Latin America and the Caribbean Cooperation on Human Rights Development, the Present and the Future, China and LAC share many commonalities. They can jointly enhance the voice of countries in the Global South in global human rights governance, and jointly contribute to the sound development of the human rights cause.

China and LAC account for about one-fifth of the world's land area and nearly one-third of the global population. In 2022, their trade in goods reached nearly 500 billion USD, 35 times the amount in 2000. Since 2012, China has become LAC's second largest trading partner and the thirdlargest source of investment.

Both believe that all countries need open human rights development paths based on their own national conditions. Without securing the right to subsistence and the right to development, the realization of other human rights is challenging, and the Global South countries must work together to play an important role in global human rights governance.

The report says China-LAC cooperation on human rights development needs to focus on three areas:

· To boost human rights communication and mutual learning to reach more consensus;

· To oppose the instrumentalization of human rights issues and strive for fairer, more equitable, reasonable and inclusive global human rights governance; 

· To promote transnational common development for human rights protection and set an example for Global South cooperation on human rights development.
