APEC forum seeks to hear diverse voices
(China Daily) 08:35, November 13, 2023
Vulnerable communities around the world often suffer the first and worst blow of industrial pollution and climate change, and thus need better representation in climate policy discussions and decision-making processes, experts and officials said.
They made the remarks at an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum on Friday, which kicked off the 2023 APEC Economic Leaders' Week in San Francisco in the United States.
The APEC Multistakeholder Forum marks the first time a diverse, multistakeholder dialogue is being organized during the APEC week. As a groundbreaking initiative, the forum addresses the local impacts of climate change and just transition on the region's diverse communities.
The forum has brought together more than 150 representatives of sustainable businesses, private organizations including charities and indigenous groups, and young peoples' and women's groups from APEC economies.
