Abstract

Chinese Academy for Environmental Planning (CAEP) kicked off the study and formulation of the Belt and Road cooperation plan for ecological and environmental protection starting from 2016. After hard work, On May 12, 2017, the Belt and Road Ecological and Environmental Cooperation Plan was printed and issued by Chinese Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) and included in List of Deliverables of the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation to effectively serve China's political diplomacy. Aiming at win–win situation through multi-dimensional cooperation, the Plan highlights the collaboration of governments, enterprises, think tanks, social organizations, and financial institutions in both domestic and international contexts, and identifies the priorities of cooperation in policy coordination, infrastructure connectivity, unimpeded trade, financial integration, people-to-people bond, and capacity building. It is of important significance for guiding the joint construction of green silk road.
