Second Round Notice | The 2nd International Symposium on Green Development of Bay Area City Cluster and the 2024 Annual Conference of the Specialized Committee on Green Development of City Clusters of the China Society of Urban Science Research

        Urban agglomerations are an important vehicle for promoting high-quality development, creating a high quality of life and building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. The "Bay Area City Cluster" has become an important growth pole for the world's economic development, as well as a new vehicle for international competition, especially for scientific and technological innovation. It is against this background that the "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area" was born, and it is China's forward-looking strategy to accurately grasp the new focus of international competition. Bay Area urban agglomerations around the world are home to large populations and are the largest resource and energy consuming regions. The transition towards a sustainable future therefore depends fundamentally on the transformation of urban systems from linear to circular, from carbon intensive to carbon neutral. The urban transition needs to draw on the capacity for scientific, technological and managerial innovation, as well as on the opportunities presented by the spatial concentration of population and economic scale, which creates sufficient conditions for exploring new models of low-carbon development and the circular economy, as well as new ecologically based socio-economic models of development, and provides an impetus for change and an inclusive space for experimentation towards a new situation of ecological and environmental governance.

       In order to better understand how the Bay Area urban agglomerations can lead the transition as enablers in the transition to high-quality development and carbon neutrality.scheduleAugust 14-17, 2024InZhuhai and MacauConvening of the 2nd International Symposium on Circular Economy in the Bay Area and the 2024 Annual Conference of the Specialized Committee on Green Development of Urban Agglomerations of the China Society for Urban Science Research on "Green Transformation of Urban Agglomerations for High-Quality Development".It is a platform for academic exchanges to discuss the theoretical approaches, technological innovations and management practices of the Bay Area urban agglomerations in the areas of high-quality development, carbon neutrality and green transformation.
