International Environmental Partnership Celebrates Its First Anniversary

The Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) will celebrate the first anniversary of International Environmental Partnership (IEP) from April 18, 2015 with a series of activities with the company of Jane Nishida, Principal Deputy Assistant Administrator of USEPA, and Jared Blumenfeld, Regional Administrator of USEPA Region 9.

IEP was inaugurated by EPA Minister Kuo-Yen Wei under the witness of President Ma and USEPA Administrator Gina McCarthy on April 14, 2014. With the collaboration of the USEPA, the Taiwan EPA was able to build closer bilateral and regional relationships with foreign partners, strengthening Taiwan’s diplomatic connections with environmental cooperation.

According to EPA officials, IEP includes projects such as the Cities Clean Air Partnership (CCAP), the Asia-Pacific Mercury Monitoring Network, environmental education, environmental law enforcement and compliance, soil pollution remediation, electronic waste recycling management, and climate change adaptation. Last year, 17 projects were conducted under the IEP with the participation of 28 countries in total. Take the Asia-Pacific Mercury Monitoring Network for example, Taiwan has assisted Vietnam and Thailand in developing methods for mercury wet deposition sampling procedures. The samples are sent to the National Central University for further analysis and the results are shared with the Asia-Pacific Mercury Monitoring Network (APMMN). The CCAP is also planning to improve air quality in Asian cities with a city certification and partnering system that encourages mutual learning between developed and developing cities.

IEP Anniversary events include IEP anniversary exhibition, Global Environment Education Partnership Meeting, Eco-Campus training workshop, CCAP campaign event with the participation of Taiwan EPA, USEPA, and Taichung City government, as well as zero waste roundtable meeting. The exhibition will be officially launched and presented in East Lane Tobacco Factory of Songshan Cultural and Creative Park on April 22. The event will run throughout April 22 to April 24.
