Ministry of Foreign Affairs hosted the first meeting of the Joint Committee in Islamabad today to start the implementation of Green Framework Engagement between Pakistan and Denmark.
From Pakistan side, it was chaired by Ambassador Syed Haider Shah while the Danish side was led by Ambassador Jakob Linulf.
Both sides welcomed the Green Framework Engagement and resolved to take concrete steps to translate it into practical cooperation, particularly in the areas of Energy Efficiency, Green Transition and Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation.
Pakistan and Denmark had signed the Green Framework Engagement in August last year to deepen cooperation in the field of green and sustainable development. Subsequently, a joint Action Plan was also finalized in June this year. Implementation of this Framework and the Action Plan would also contribute to Pakistan’s efforts to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
