The Series of Major Global Initiatives: Global Governance Initiative

On September 1, 2025, Chinese President Xi Jinping solemnly proposed the Global Governance Initiative (GGI) at the "Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) Plus" Meeting. GGI offers China's solution to the core questions of our time — what kind of global governance system to build and how to reform and improve global governance. This significant initiative features and advocates five core concepts: First, sovereign equality to ensure participation in global affairs by all countries; Second, international rule of law for a just and orderly global governance system; Third, multilateralism for greater solidarity and cooperation among all countries; Fourth, a people-centered approach for universally beneficial and inclusive outcomes of global governance; Fifth, an action-oriented approach for a pragmatic and efficient global governance process. These five core concepts provide a new vision, new ideas, and new pathways for the transformation of global governance as it enters a new period of turbulence and change. They help the international community strengthen cooperation, promote the building of a more just and equitable global governance regime, and work together toward a community with a shared future for mankind.
