Political Dialogue
The Sino-German Urbanisation Partnership (SGUP) aspires to positively influence urban and environmental policy-making and implementation. Therefore, SGUP supports a multi-sectoral approach towards environmental conservation and sustainable urbanisation through policy dialogues between the German Ministry of the Environment (BMU) and the Chinese Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MoHURD), as well as their associated institutions. With a team based in Beijing and a liaison office situated in Berlin, SGUP works closely with local authorities from both Germany and China, ensuring continual exchange among our political partners and supporting engagement that warrants a common line of action. SGUP invite city and government officials, professionals within the focus fields, academics and industry representatives to become part of the political dialogue.
