China Development Gateway, also known as CnDG,
started its trial operation in 2001. It was a joint project between
the Chinese government and the Development Gateway Foundation(DGF)
under the World Bank. Later on in the same year, the foundation
became independent from the World Bank as a non-profit
organization. CnDG now has close relationships with the foundation
and they have already started some new joint projects.
Michael Pereira, the director of the Global Online
Communities of the foundation, is invited to "China Talk", to share
the information of dgCommunities and its new project named "China
Poverty-relief Forum" with the audience. The forum is expected to
be launched at the beginning of July, as a platform for people to
publish ideas, share knowledge and exchange views with each other,
with an aim of contributing to the poverty-relief and development
in China.
