The province of West Flanders and the Chinese province of Zhejiang have a long tradition of cooperation in economics, agriculture and education. Because both provinces are facing similar challenges in the fields of environment, research and health care, they decided to develop a joint knowledge institute for sustainable economy<\/strong>. In this way, the provincial governments want to share and strengthen their expertise on these issues.<\/p>\n<\/div>

This knowledge institute acts as a platform where research institutions, in collaboration with industry and independent knowledge centers, conduct applied scientific research, build pilots and exchange knowledge and experiences. These solutions contribute to a circular economy and reduce the ecological footprint in both provinces. Through a Task Force China, TUA is coordinating West Flanders efforts together with Province of West Flanders.<\/p>\n

In October 2023, TUA West participated in an official mission to China led by Governor Decaluw\u00e9 as part of the Commemoration of Ferdinand Verbiest.<\/p>\n
