Special event on green transition held at COP31

The United Nations Institute for Training and Research and China Global Television Network have hosted a side event on green transition at the 31st meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change in Antalya, Türkiye.

Titled “Global Open Class: Green Transition in Action” and held at the China Pavilion, the event brought together experts for a roundtable discussion on global climate action. The roundtable explored how technology, leadership and communication can accelerate the green transition, and how China’s experience can be adapted to the needs of different countries.

The event featured the release of four practical guides drawing on Chinese sustainable development cases and the launch of two global capacity-development initiatives. The guides addressed smart mobility, rural circular economies, climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction, among other areas.
