In 2003, the Italian Ministry of the Environment and Conservation started an advanced training program in collaboration with
Venice International University about
environmental management and sustainable development, addressed to government officials at national, provincial and local levels, and to teachers, researchers, managers and technicians. During these years, almost 1,500 people have participated in the program.
Participants in the advanced training course have been invited to Beijing to attend the conference to be updated about the progress of Sino-Italian cooperation in environmental fields, with the participation of relevant bodies of the Chinese government. During the event, an association of participants in the program will be created.
