China is willing to enhance collaborations with all countries in environmental protection as part of an effort to help achieve the UN's sustainable development goals, a senior official said on Wednesday.

The official, in charge of the international cooperation department of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said China is willing to advance environmental collaborations with other countries in including policy-making, capacity building, pollution control and ecological restoration through holding seminars, training sessions and promoting personnel exchanges.

He spoke at the opening ceremony of the International Environmental Cooperation Activities of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia, which opened on Wednesday in Fuzhou, Fujian province.

The three-day event aims to promote policy dialogue, technique exchanges and environmental exchanges under the framework of CICA.

He also hailed the efforts to promote multilateral environmental conservation and the participation in the Coalition for Green Development on the Belt and Road – which aims to work toward the sustainable development of the Belt and Road Initiative.

"And I welcome all countries and parties to join the building of a Belt and Road database for ecology and environmental protection," he said, adding the database will help share information ranging from law to industrial standards among the countries participating in the initiative.
