In 2018 AP-PLAT was established at the G20 summit in Japan with the vision of helping Asia-Pacific countries build a climate-resilient and sustainable society. This session, as a collaboration with the East Asia Sea Congress 2021, which is hosted by Partnerships in Environmental Management for the Seas of East Asia (PEMSEA), will present the latest scientific findings and capacity building content provided by AP-PLAT. It also aims to discuss potential areas for synergy between AP-PLAT and PEMSEA, and the role of IGES as the PEMSEA Regional Center of Excellence.
