Oman's Environment Authority and Japan's Ministry of the Environment have signed a bilateral agreement aimed at enhancing cooperation on environmental issues and advancing sustainable development, according to the Oman News Agency.
The agreement seeks to strengthen the implementation of international environmental treaties, including the Paris Agreement, and lays the groundwork for a collaborative framework based on equality, reciprocity, and mutual benefit.
To combat climate change, Oman has launched a national plan aiming for zero-carbon neutrality by 2050. The strategy includes a comprehensive transition of the energy sector toward renewable sources, enhanced energy efficiency, and significant emission reductions across all sectors.
The pact was signed by Abdullah bin Ali Al-Amri, chairman of Oman's Environment Authority, and Matsuzawa Yutaka, vice-minister for Global Environmental Affairs at Japan's Ministry of the Environment. The signing ceremony was attended by Japan's Ambassador to Oman Kiyoshi Serizawa.
Key areas of cooperation outlined in the agreement include climate change mitigation and adaptation, waste management, biodiversity conservation through nature-based solutions, and environmental monitoring.
The two nations also agreed to collaborate on training programs, expert exchanges, scientific research, and joint initiatives. The partnership will promote knowledge sharing and foster dialogue on both current and emerging environmental challenges.
