Abstract “Rural sustainable mutual support for elderly care” is defined as a model of elderly care that takes the village as the governance unit, uses social networks such as blood ties, geographical ties, and neighborhood relations as the bond, and is supported by institutional arrangements. It can continuously stimulate the participation willingness of villagers or rural elderly people, and explore and mobilize rural resources themselves to provide elderly care services.However, in practice, rural mutual support for elderly care faces issues such as insufficient incentives for farmers’ participation, high barriers to mutual support participation, and poor operation of mutual support systems. Through a longitudinal investigation of the mutual support for elderly care situation in Village A, an analytical framework of “Party building integration-endogenous motivation-sustainable development” is constructed to deeply explore the operational logic and practical paths for the sustainable development of rural mutual support for elderly care under the integration of Party building. Research findings indicate that the grassroots Party organizations, as the bridge connecting the government and villagers, as well as the system and practice, play a pivotal role in system construction, organizational coordination and resource integration, and are the key nodes in promoting the sustainable development of rural mutual assistance in elderly care. In terms of stimulating the endogenous motivation of rural villagers, the Party organization achieves the standardization of mutual support for elderly care through institutional integration, the adjustment of mutual support for elderly care relationships through organizational integration, and the integration of mutual support for elderly care elements through resource integration, empowering the elderly’s willingness and ability to help each other, and enhancing their sense of responsibility and belonging, thus leading rural mutual support for elderly care towards a self-sustaining and self-developing sustainable path. The construction of a“Party building leadership + rural mutual support” service system is a collective action process centered on enhancing farmers’ participation incentives, lowering the threshold for mutual assistance participation and ensuring the operation of the mutual assistance system.
