APFNet supported the participation of children from China, including coordinating their nominations, registration, and travel arrangements.

The program provided an opportunity for the children to experience Mongolia’s natural environment and culture while building friendships with their Mongolian peers. Through recreational, educational, and cultural activities, participants learned about one another’s traditions and experienced everyday life in an international summer camp setting.

Turning Regional Cooperation into Restoration Action in Greater Central Asia
On 24 August, APFNet and the National Forest Agency (NFA) of Mongolia jointly organized the side event “Regional Cooperation for Forest Rehabilitation and Restoration: Accelerating Action against Desertification in Greater Central Asia” at the NFA Pavilion in the COP17 Green Zone.

Greater Central Asia faces interconnected challenges from climate change, water scarcity, land degradation and desertification, biodiversity loss, and increasing risks of forest and grassland fires. These challenges extend beyond individual economies and require stronger regional cooperation and locally adapted approaches. The event therefore focused on how policy dialogue, scientific knowledge and practical projects can work together to accelerate forest and landscape restoration.
