The China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development
(CCICED) opened its 2026 annual meeting in Beijing on Sept. 27. Minister of
Ecology and Environment Huang Runqiu, CCICED Chinese executive vice-chair, said
the seventh CCICED produced a series of policy recommendations over the past
five years that have supported China’s environmental and development agenda and
offered reference for global sustainable development. He called on the council
to continue as a platform to deepen pragmatic cooperation, accelerate green
development to benefit the public, boost innovation to drive the global green
transition, and help shape a fairer, more cooperative global environmental
governance framework.
