It is a non-political, non-religious, non-profit organization. HPP China is affiliated to ‘The Federation for Associations connected to the international HUMANA PEOPLE TO PEOPLE Movement. Humana People to People came to China in 2005. It started as the "Humana People to People Cooperation Project Office of Yunnan Province" under the cooperation with the Poverty Alleviation and Development Office of Yunnan Province in June 2005. It was recorded at the Civil Affairs Department of Yunnan Province as an overseas NGO representative office in Yunnan called "The Yunnan Office of the Federation for Associations Connected to the International Humana People to People Movement (Switzerland)" in July 2010.

On March 28, 2018 it was registered as 'The Federation for Associations Connected to the International Humana People to People Movement (Switzerland) Chongqing Representative Office' at the Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau. Through our work we want to bridge the four big social gaps in China: Urban-Rural, East-West, Rich-Poor, and the gender gap. From 2005 to 2019, our projects in the sectors of rural preschool education, green poverty alleviation, rural community development and health and nutrition benefitted more than 3.8 million people. Our Purpose and Concept Humana People to People China is committed to creating better development opportunities for disadvantaged groups through solidary actions, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with those in need, striving for a better future. Our development work is rooted in a commitment to fight alongside The Poor in a collective process that supports people to make changes, improve their lives and solve their problems. Message from the Chief Representative 'Dear friends, colleagues, partners and stakeholders of our projects', The Government of China made significant progress towards the goal of reaching the ‘moderate well-off society’ by 2020. The economy grew with 2.8% GDP per capita from 9,982 USD in 2018 to 10,264 USD in 2019, which places China around no. 70 on a global ranking. An additional 11 Million people escaped poverty during 2019 and by year end there were about 5.5 Million Poor – a poverty incidence of 0.6% - left, which the government aims to lift out of poverty in 2020, 10 years before the deadline of the SDGs. Preschool education also was strengthened in 2019. In Yunnan Province the 3 year enrolment rate could be raised from 70% in 2017 to 79% in 2018 and 83% in 2019 and the number of children without access dropped from 600,000 in 2017 to 340,000 in 2019. Poverty rural areas still bear the brunt of the lack of education access, with only estimated 20-50 % of children able to access preschools. On the HIV front, China managed to conduct 230 million HIV tests from January – October 2019 and 131,000 new cases were reported, bringing the total reported cases to 958,000 as Contents of 31.10.2019, or to a National infection rate of 0.07%. Another 300,000 people are estimated to be unaware of their HIV- positive status. China has set the goal to eliminate Mother-to- Greeting from the Chief Representative Child transmission by 2022. 1 Our Projects With your support and hard work we touched the lives of 2 140,000 people in 10 projects in 2019.

    Displacement and Resettlement Following the Ludian Earthquake in China

    SHUYU JIANG Displacement and Resettlement Following the Ludian Earthquake in China hile the memory of the Wenchuan earthquake is vivid in Chinese people’s memory, on 3 August 2014, a 6.5-magni- tude earthquake devastated Ludian County in Yunnan Province in southwest China. According to the central government’s calculation (Government of the PRC, November 2014), 617 people were reported dead, 112 missing and 318,000 people were displaced. The earth- quake was the largest natural disaster in China in 2014 and caused economic losses amounting to US$6 billion (ESCAP, 2014). WThis paper concentrates on displacement after the Ludian earthquake and the relevant solutions to it. The first part provides the background information as to why this area is vulnerable to natural disasters. The second reviews the impacts of the earthquake and how rescue and temporary migration were subsequently imple- mented. After analysing the short-term action, the third part focuses on long-term resettlement and rehabilitation in order to explore feasible solutions to different flows of migrants in the longer term. The paper notably establishes connections between environmental and economic factors before and after the migration process. On the one hand, an exten- sive thriving economy would exacerbate environmental risks, thus inducing more natural disasters and migration problems. On the other hand, given existing prob- lems, environmental migration could represent a proactive solution for this under- developed area to obviate the vicious circle regarding its development and accelerate economic growth. 1. BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1.1. Country Profile – China As shown in Figure 1, China is prone to droughts, floods, cyclones, earthquakes and various other types of natural disasters.

Although mango is an economically important fruit tree, its genetic resources are still undocumented and are threatened in their natural habits. In this study, the variability of 452 mango accessions from three regions in China (Nujiang, Lancang river and Honghe) was assessed using 41 descriptors including qualitative and quantitative traits, with the aim to identify mango accessions with excellent agronomic and quality traits. To this end, descriptive and multivariate analyses were performed. Based on Shannon–Weaver diversity index, qualitative traits including pericarp color, fruit aroma, flesh color, and fruit flavor recorded the highest variability in the germplasm. Fruit related traits including pulp weight, peel weight, and fruit weight were the most diverse traits in the germplasm with a high coefficient of variation (CV > 40%). Significant differences (MANOVA test, p < 0.000) were observed among the three regions for most of the quantitative traits.

Introduction 1. According to the Feasibility Study Report and RF, the Project involves neither land acquisition nor house demolition, and involves temporary land occupation only. This report aims to strengthen the development of ethnic minorities in the project area, and includes mitigation and benefit enhancing measures, and funding sources. The project area involves a number of ethnic minorities, including Yi, Hani and Lisu. B. Socioeconomic profile of ethnic minorities 2. Poverty and income: The Project involves 16 cities/prefectures in Yunnan Province. In 2013, there were 6.61 million poor population in Yunnan Province, which accounting for 17.54% of total population. In 2013, the per capita net income of rural residents in Yunnan Province was 6,141 yuan. 3. Gender Heads of households are usually men, reflecting the superior status of men. Both men and women do farm work, where men usually do more physically demanding farm work, such as fertilization, cultivation, pesticide application, watering, harvesting and transport, while women usually do housework or less physically demanding farm work, such as washing clothes, cooking, taking care of old people and children, feeding livestock, and field management.
