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, $300,000 USD from China Trust Fund was allocated towards the Support for the Revision of National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans in Central Asian Countries Project (T2-P5) (p. 4). The project was completed in May 2016.
