Description
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, $350,000 USD from the China Trust Fund was allocated to supporting regional policy dialogue on sustainable cities with scientific assessment and policy dialogue (T3-P5) (p. 5). This project took place in unspecified Southeast Asian countries (p. 57). As of January 2017, progress was ongoing.
