Project narrative

On 14 December 2012, China’s Ministry of Environmental Protection (China MEP) and the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) signed a framework agreement on strategic cooperation. This agreement involved China MEP committing $2 million annually to the China Trust Fund which focuses on environmental protection in African, ASEAN, and Central Asian countries. According to a 2017 Final Report from UNEP, $400,000 USD from the China Trust Fund was allocated to the Enhancing South-South Cooperation: Building the Capacity of Developing Countries to Promote Green Economies Project (T1-P1) (p. 71). This project took place in China, Bolivia, South Africa, and Thailand. It began in April 2013 and ended in April 2015.
