The Foreign Environmental Cooperation Center (referred to as FECO) is a public institution directly under the Ministry of Ecology and Environment. In January 2019, it was established by integrating the Foreign Economic Cooperation Office of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, and the China-ASEAN Environmental Cooperation Center. The newly formed Center combines the functions of the four above-mentioned organizations. FECO provides support and services for the Ministry of Ecology and Environment for international cooperation in the fields of green BRI, policy research, implementation of international conventions, regional, bilateral and multilateral cooperation, industrial technology exchanges and capacity building. It is an important platform for China's international cooperation and exchanges in ecological and environmental protection.
