A hamiltonian action of a Lie group G on a symplectic manifold M is generated by a momentum map J:M-*Q* which is equivariant with respect to the coadjoint representation. The reduction procedure of Meyer [14] and Marsden and Weinstein [13] consists of forming the quotient M^ =J~ (//) /G^ where /£ is an element of Q* and G^ is its coadjoint isotropy group. In recent years (see [6], for example) a property of / already known to Lie [9] has been recognized as essential: J is a Poisson map from M to g* with its Lie-Poisson structure. This suggests the problem of replacing g* by an arbitrary Poisson manifold P3 but the question immediately arises as to what object will play the role of the group G. This object having just been identified by Karasev [7] and one of us [3] [20] as a symplectic groupoid^ the purpose of the present paper is to extend the reduction procedure to symplectic groupoid actions. An important stimulus for our work has been the reduction theory for Poisson Lie group actions developed in [16]. Using Drinfel'd's notion of Poisson Lie group [4], Semenov-Tian-Shansky explained the hamiltonian behavior of the dressing transformations which arise from the inverse-scattering approach to completely integrable systems. A new theory was necessary because dressing transformations do not preserve the Poisson structure of the spaces on which they act. In a sequel to this paper5 we hope to study how Poisson Lie groups and
