International Training Workshop on Disaster Risk Reduction Knowledge Service in China-Pakistan Economic Corridor

Time：9 Nov-11 Nov, 2020

Location: Beijing, China (On-line)

Overview

With the globalization and internationalization of the current world, the competition and cooperation among countries and regions in energy, resources, science and technology, economy, etc. are being constantly strengthened. Bordering the "Silk Road Economic Belt" to the north and the "21st Century Maritime Silk Road" to the south, the "China-Pakistan Economic Corridor" is the pilot area and “flagship project” of "the Belt and Road" initiative, involving cooperation in transportation, energy, optical cable and ocean. Influenced by geological, topographic, geomorphological, climatic and hydrological conditions, the natural disasters in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor are very heavy with ecological environment being extremely fragile, and the carrying capacity of resources extremely limited, which seriously threatens regional sustainable development.

The International Training Workshop on Disaster Risk Reduction Knowledge Service in China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is planned for November 9 - 11, 2020 on-line.

This training program aims to enhance the knowledge and ability of disaster risk reduction, provide a batch of basic data resources, optimize the mechanism and improve the efficiency of data sharing services in the region, promote the international cooperation along the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor and support its green development.
