Environmental experts from Switzerland, headed by Partizia Palmiero, regional counselor of the Swiss Consulate, paid a visit to Wenjiang district in Chengdu, Sichuan province, on Oct 27, for mutual cooperation issues on low carbon projects.

The Swiss delegation, accompanied by Yu Hui, deputy head of Wenjiang, visited the headquarters of the Chengdu Medical Town, ancient dwellings of the Chen family and the bitter bamboo forest to have a full understanding of the district’s good ecological environment and well-developed biomedical industry.

The two sides held in-depth discussions over a symposium about potential cooperation projects such as the Shou’an Slow Town, water system construction, upgrading the medical town and modern agriculture sightseeing project, all of which were environment-friendly initiatives while conducive to the local economy.
