malaysiangThe 2023 World Coastal Forum aiming to create a global cooperation platform in the field of coastal ecology with clear orientation, diversified participation, strong actions and rich products, will be held from Sept 25 to 27, in Yancheng, China.
Originating from the Yellow (Bo) Sea Wetland International Conference, the World Coastal Forum has been held for four consecutive sessions in Yancheng, according to the Information Office of Yancheng Municipal People’s Government in a statement.
Themed “Our Coasts: Green and Low-carbon Development”, the conference will hold four themed fora and more than 10 special seminars.
As a host, Yancheng actively builds an exchange and cooperation platform for coastal wetland cities worldwide, creating an “ecological environment” “Circle of friends”, gathering global wisdom, conspiring with poetry and distance.
Currently, Yancheng is deeply participating in international ecological governance dialogue and cooperation, advocating and building an ecological economic circle around the Yellow Sea, and carrying out pragmatic cooperation in ecological mutual learning and economic integration.
In recent years, the city has practised the concept of “Lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets”, planted a solid ecological foundation, and painted a new picture of the harmonious coexistence between man and nature, providing a copyable and scalable Yancheng Plan for global coastal ecological protection and restoration.
Yancheng has the largest coastal wetland on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean and on the edge of the Asian continent, as well as the vast lake wetland in the Lixia River area, with two international business cards of “World Natural Heritage” and “International Wetland City”.
