About the China Programme

The ICTSD China Programme is aimed at leveraging China’s role in global economic governance for a global common future of sustainable development.

The programme is focused on three key themes: global economic governance, trade and investment, international development. It makes intervention at the global bilateral and national levels.

On 21st March 2011, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao met ICTSD Chief Executive Mr. Ricardo Melendez-Ortiz in People’s Great Hall.  Wen said, China’s development is inseparable from the world, and the development of the world cannot be realized without China. In his conversation, Premier Wen encouraged ICTSD to support China’s smoother integration into world economy, advancing sustainable development of China and the world.

Bridges China Dialogue is the flagship project of the programme. The Dialogue is committed to improving China’s globalization in a sustainable manner by engaging Chinese business leaders and policymakers in international multi-stakeholder conversations on governance, strategies, practices and global citizenship.  Since 2007, the Dialogue has become one of most influential international forums on China related issues.

Through strong partnership with the business community, academia and policymakers from China and around the world, the Bridges China Dialogue series helps the international community to gain in-depth insights into policy and market developments in China, explore investment opportunities in sustainable and clean technology projects, and deepen collaboration with Chinese business, government and other relevant stakeholders.
