| 全文 | Co-established by the EPA and the USEPA, the Global Environmental Education Partnership (GEEP) Asia-Pacific Regional Center was launched on 3 December 2019 after two years of planning. In his opening remarks, EPA Minister Tzi-chin Chang said the proposal of building an environmental education network for the Asia-Pacific area was first discussed in the 2017 GEEP meeting in Osaka, Japan. The establishment of the regional center fully demonstrates Taiwan’s achievement and commitment in environmental education and makes Taiwan an environmental education center in the Asia-Pacific region. The Global Environmental Education Partnership (GEEP) was founded by the EPA and the USEPA to promote regional and global environmental education, and holds an annual conference with representatives from around the world. Now that the regional center is officially in operation, it will provide experts from different governments, industries, academia and non-governmental organizations an opportunity to cooperate and exchange knowledge. Through the center, Taiwan will also be able to share its own experiences with countries in the Asia-Pacific region, and from around the world. The regional center is located on the campus of National Taichung University of Education. Participants of the opening ceremony included: EPA Minister Tzi-chin Chang; Director of the American Institute in Taiwan, William Brent Christensen; Director of the Office of International and Tribal Affairs of the USEPA, Mark Kasman; Executive Director of the North American Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE), Judy Braus; President of National Taichung University of Education, Ru-Jer Wang; Deputy Director-General of Taichung City Environmental Protection Bureau, Jeng-Liang Chen; Representative of the Papua New Guinea Trade Office in Taiwan, Tommy Kambu Kunji; Director of the Manila Economic and Cultural Office, Arthur Abiera, Jr.; and Assistant Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Yi-Long Wang. The EPA, USEPA, Taichung City Government, and NAAEE will operate the regional center and take joint responsibility to assist Asia-Pacific countries with developing environmental policies and implementation strategies at both local and national levels through providing training courses, technological support, guidance, and information exchange. |
