STRATEGIC GOAL 2STRATEGIC GOAL 2STRATEGIC GOAL 2STRATEGIC GOAL 2Creating a mutual living cycle structure of both economic growth and reducing climate change by introducing green growth as a new paradigm for economic growth for countries in partnership

STRATEGIC GOAL 3STRATEGIC GOAL 3STRATEGIC GOAL 3STRATEGIC GOAL 3Establishing an international cooperation platform to cope effectively with climate change through new partnership among Asian countries

STRATEGIC GOAL 4STRATEGIC GOAL 4STRATEGIC GOAL 4STRATEGIC GOAL 4Sharing South Korea’s knowledge and experience relevant to green growth & Developing “Low Carbon, Green Growth” policies

East Asia Climate Partnership (EACPEast Asia Climate Partnership (EACPEast Asia Climate Partnership (EACPEast Asia Climate Partnership (EACP) is South Korea’s international development collaboration projects to share the green growth paradigm to Asian region, in order to achieve sustainable development while coping with climate change


Structure


Who are the partners? The targets of the EACP include many Asian countries, covering :

East Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the PacEast Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islandific Island

Why Asia?


� Partner countries in Asia still lack basic infrastructure such as flood control systems making them vulnerable to changes in weather partner caused by climate change

� High dependency on energy imports and increased demand of fossil fuels are not only major threats to a nation’s energy security, but also contribute to climate change

� The frequent occurrence of natural disasters due to climate change and uncertainty means that partner countries are required to expand their capability to adapt to climate change

• Support the entire value chain from forestation to biomass

through projects to promote carbon storage

• Support water control infrastructure and relevant policy

development to help prevent disasters and accessibility to

fresh water to enhance the capacity to handle increasing

water-related natural disasters

• Support those Asian countries experiencing high

dependency on fossil fuels and severe power shortage,

while cutting down on carbon emissions

• Lead low-carbon development across Asian cities to boost

urban energy efficiency and to lower the green house gas e

mission

• Take the lead in Asia regarding waste related issues by

developing a database of waste information of other

countries and using it to support optimal waste

management / reuse and waste-to-energy efforts

STRATEGYThe East Asia Climate Partnership will play a leading role to combat climate change based onfeasible and practical projects.


Reinforcing Asia’s capacity through various programs to adapt to climate change1Climate change programs such as financial support, technical assistance and pilot projects will improve partner countries’ climate change adaptation capacity and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Cooperating partnerships with international organizations for combating climate change 2Partnerships with a variety of international organizations including the UN will increase efficiency in coping with the negative impacts of climate change.

Promoting strengthened bonds of cooperation and common understanding for Green Growth 3Climate change forums, technological exhibition and R&D will help leaders in Asia develop common understanding and strong bonds regarding Green Growth.
