Over 270 delegates from China, Russia, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia gathered in Xinjiang's Altay City this week for the Greater Altai International Conference, sparking fresh momentum for cross-border collaboration. 🌱 From green tech to cultural exchanges, here's what went down!
Dubbed a 'geographical and cultural goldmine,' the Altai subregion—spanning 780,000 sq km—is now a hotspot for trade, tech, and eco-initiatives. Representatives vowed to boost infrastructure, share agricultural innovations, and tackle climate challenges. 💡 'We’re building platforms to share green tech and protect biodiversity,' said Jilel Helel of Xinjiang’s science department.
🤝 Key moves? Upgrading cross-border railways, launching student exchanges, and co-hosting art festivals. Chinese firms also showcased water-saving irrigation tech, while sister-city partnerships got a major shoutout for fostering grassroots ties.
But it’s not all business! The conference sealed deals on intangible heritage events and climate-resilient farming. Think K-pop meets Silk Road vibes—but with more sustainability memos. 📜
With 5.2 million people calling the Altai region home, this collaboration could redefine how borders blur for progress. Stay tuned for more updates! ✨
