At the 8th Silk Road (Dunhuang) International Cultural Expo, Tashi Dorji, a leading expert from Nepal's International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), spotlighted China's innovative approaches to sustainable grassland management and pastoralism. His observations in Dunhuang revealed a harmonious blend of ecological preservation and cultural heritage protection, offering lessons for Asia's green transition.
"The integration of responsible tourism with environmental stewardship in Dunhuang demonstrates a replicable model," Dorji noted, emphasizing the potential for cross-border collaboration. His analysis aligns with growing interest in China's eco-friendly policies, particularly as Asian nations seek balanced strategies for economic growth and climate resilience.
The expo, attended by representatives from over 50 countries and regions, underscored the Silk Road's evolving role as a platform for sharing sustainable development practices. Academics and policymakers alike are now examining how China's grassland restoration initiatives could inform regional strategies to combat desertification and biodiversity loss.
