The Climate Crisis and Civil Society Dialogue in Asia

Introduction

The project aims to establish platforms for stakeholders from civil society, business, and politics to engage in discussions regarding opportunities and challenges of foreign investments in the fight against the climate crisis. Over the next three years, we will facilitate the creation of transnational civil society initiatives aimed at addressing the climate crisis in Asia. We foster dialogue and collaboration among civil society actors from China, Europe, Nepal, and Indonesia to address climate-damaging effects of foreign investments. Our goal is a unified international approach to the fight against climate change.

Goals

Two project objectives are derived from this: 1) Civil society organizations from China, Europe, Indonesia, and Nepal have collaborated on climate impacts of foreign investment projects in Indonesia and Nepal with involved stakeholders. 2) Best practices are shared in global climate forums.

In this sense, the China Programme would like to contribute to the realization of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and possible climate partnerships with Chinese actors against the background of the EU-China Strategic Outlook of 2019. From a cross-sectional perspective, the project also touches upon SDGs 5, 7, 11, 13,16 and 17.
