Abstract
As the profound changes unseen in a century accelerate, human development undergoes a new inflection point. Continuously intensifying deficits of peace, development, security and governance make it imperative for mankind to have systematic, yet feasible international public goods, to integrate forces in the international community in jointly promoting the building of a community with a shared future for mankind. At the same time, as development levels of all countries in the world are uneven, the priority area of building such a community lies in common development of the Global South. It is against this background that China has put forward major initiatives like the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the Global Development Initiative (GDI), the Global Security Initiative (GSI), and the Global Civilization Initiative (GCI), covering key areas in building a community with a shared future for mankind. Together they provide systematic Chinese concepts and Chinese approaches for human development at the crossroads to further improve global governance mechanisms, tackle common challenges facing human society, and especially promote unity and cooperation of the Global South with Chinese wisdom.
