The Macao SAR Government is actively working in line with the national environmental protection and development strategies to push forward energy-saving and carbon-reducing efforts and curtail waste at the source in a methodical manner, while developing the economy. The 2023 Macao International Environmental Co-operation Forum & Exhibition (MIECF) looks to leverage Macau’s role as a bridge to contribute to environmental protection.
Hosted by the SAR Government, the 2023 MIECF was held for four consecutive days from 17 August. Entering its 15th anniversary, this year featuring the theme of “Building an Ecological Civilization Through Innovative Initiatives”, the event comprised 20 forums and conferences and five themed matching sessions.
With seven exhibition areas covering construction, finance, catering, transport, water resources, energy-saving and eco-friendly technologies, and waste management, MIECF aims to enhance green co-operation. The event attracted 40 international exhibitors. Among them, the “Green Living Zone” and “Green and Low-Carbon Project Zone” were newly added this year, where an array of environmental technology products was launched.
In addition, five themed matching sessions were held, covering the environmental collaboration between Macau and Hengqin governments, Portuguese-speaking countries, sustainable green projects, green finance, and large integrated resorts. These helped enterprises seek green business opportunities together through various exchanges.
