China is charting a course toward a shared maritime future by promoting the development of the marine economy. Recognizing the ocean’s vital role in global economic growth and ecological balance, China has been strengthening partnerships and deepening practical maritime cooperation and scientific and technological exchanges.
Over the years, China has focused on building a “blue partnership” with coastal nations, aiming to enhance collaboration in areas such as sustainable fisheries, marine conservation, and maritime security. These efforts have led to increased investment in marine infrastructure, fostering economic opportunities not just for China but for its global partners as well.
Scientific research and technological innovation are at the heart of China’s marine strategy. By sharing knowledge and resources, China seeks to address common challenges like climate change, ocean pollution, and biodiversity loss. Collaborative projects and international forums have been instrumental in uniting countries toward these common goals.
Looking ahead, China remains committed to fostering open cooperation and mutual benefit. It plans to enhance maritime connectivity and promote practical cooperation, offering platforms for coastal countries worldwide to engage in the development of the blue economy. Through these initiatives, China aims to contribute to global prosperity and the sustainable use of marine resources.
