The learnings of the Climate Change Training Course - Seoul (7-15/04/ 2015)

The Climate Change Training Program for foreign public officials has been held in Seoul from April 8~14. Among the participants, seven member cities of METROPOLIS were represented by their respective public officials dedicated in the environment: Beijing, Guangzhou, Jakarta, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Quito attended the program and had the opportunity to share participating cities’ efforts in preserving the earth and environment (see the list of participants here). This METROPOLIS Training program was in line with ICLEI World Congress held in Seoul which, in turn, provided an opportunity of thinking hard and sharing the theme of ICLEI World Congress- Sustainable Solutions for an Urban Future.

In addition, participants visited the fields of best cases like World Cup Park and Energy Dream Center after listening to lectures on Environmental Policies of Seoul and One Less Nuclear Power Plant while improving the understanding on environmental policies of Seoul with detailed explanations.
