On November 27, the China-LAC Technology Transfer Center and Amazon Carbon held a closed-door seminar to further explore technical cooperation and carbon market development. They reached a strategic consensus on jointly establishing a high-level cooperation platform with Peruvian universities. Together, they will innovate a “tripartite synergy” mechanism featuring “center-led, university-supported, enterprise-operated” collaboration. This will create a multi-functional strategic hub integrating resource coordination, scientific innovation research, and market operation development. Simultaneously, leveraging this platform, they will extend cooperation in areas such as the establishment of scientific organizations and the development of research institutions, promoting the interconnected development of industry, academia, and research. This initiative will tangibly serve the national strategy of high-level opening-up and global cooperation.
This series of meetings represents a significant practical step by China and Latin America in strengthening global climate governance and deepening scientific, technological, and economic cooperation. It demonstrates the shared consensus of empowering green development through science and technology, injecting new momentum into advancing high-level self-reliance in science and technology and building a community with a shared future for mankind.
