2nd Training-Workshop on China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor Management - Day 1 Railway Transport
A series of training-workshop is organized to strengthen subregional connectivity in East and North-East Asia through effective economic corridor management. China, Mongolia, and the Russian Federation signed the Program of China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor in June 2016 aimed towards the expansion and development of the trilateral partnership through implementation of joint projects. There are 32 approved projects under the Economic Corridor Program covering several fields of cooperation (i.e. transportation infrastructure, industrial sector, border-crossing points development, trade facilitation and customs procedures, energy, environment and ecology, agriculture, education and technology, humanitarian).
The training-workshops aim to build capacity of East and North-East Asian countries to accelerate the implementation of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor Program in line with sustainable development. To achieve this, the training-workshops focused on both technical and institutional-related areas that would provide the foundations for the initiation of the priority projects. Issues which emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic are also given focus.
The 2nd training-workshop was conducted online on 15-16 December 2020 and focused on railway transport, project management and trade facilitation.
The training-workshop combined self-paced learning and interactive lecture sessions. An online knowledge resource portal was created, housing all learning materials and proceedings from the training-workshop.
