Sino-German cooperation projects not only produced the significant eco-efficiency and economic benefits by raising forest coverage, but also made Chinese forestry workers acquire new idea and technology of forestry. However, forestry infrastructure and technological information sevice are still imperfect, forestry policy is not suitable and follow-up funds are insufficient. The outcome and experience of Sino-German cooperation projects after 20 years were summarized through analysis the activities and social ecological benefits. Advanced forest management technology and improvement of forest management were introduced and capacity building was remarkably improved by implementing Sino-German financial cooperation projects. At last, the gaps appearing in the Sino-German cooperation were pointed out, and factors which constrained smooth implementation were analyzed in this paper.展开更多

Since Harbin Welding Training Institute(WTI Harbin) was founded based on Sino-German cooperation in 1984, it has trained all kinds of welding personnel 20000 and it made important contribution to the up-to-date system introduction of international welding training to China. The common questions in Germany foreign aid programs are: when German experts were on site, the project was on the operation; when he/they left, only memory was left. The outstanding achievements of Harbin Welding Training Institute tell us: when German experts were away, the cooperation program is not only run normally, but also gets persistent development, it is the successful model among the cooperation projects between China and Germany.展开更多

Against the background of the rising antagonism between China and the West as well as the continuous efforts of the US to urge Europe to curb China in recent years, Germany's understanding of China tends to be negative. Besides, because of the changes in Germany's political landscape and in Sino-German economic and trade relations, the new government is likely to reinforce its defense against and pressure upon China, reduce its strategic dependence on China, strengthen the coordination with its European and American allies for a collective China policy, and compete for dominance in economy and trade, science and technology, global infrastructure, and rules and standards. Sino-German relations may fluctuate, but because of the binding of the economy and trade between the two countries, internal contradictions inside the Western Bloc, and the German tradition of diplomatic pragmatism, the new government will adjust its China policy on the basis of continuation, so that the reversal of the Sino-German relations is hardly to be triggered.展开更多

Due to the concept of peace and development and the principle of dialogue through consultation, non- confrontation and pragmatism with equality, which have been upheld by organizers, such symposiums have made great achievements. The dialogue mechanism for human rights topics between China and Germany has helped construct a common, accessible and interactive platform for pushing forward human rights legal advancement in both countries, which has brought about a positive influence on the develop- ment of the human rights cause in the two countries. Strengthening legal construction and ensuring hu- man rights are not only the shared aspiration of all the people in the world, but also the irreversible his- torical trend of human civilization. The symposium, with the theme of international law and human rights protection, encourages participants to discuss and share theories and practices in human rights studies, which makes a significant contribu- tion to enriching the modern human rights concept and building a new type of international cooperation. The international community always pays great attention to the relation- ship between human rights and legal governance. China always abides by international human rights con- ventions including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which set up fundamental principles for promoting and ensuring human rights, and has endorsed 26 inter- national human rights conventions such as the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. Meanwhile, China, through legislation, jurisdiction and admin- istration, brings into full play the active role of international human rights conventions in ensuring hu- man rights in the country.展开更多

Eng. Technol., 23(4), 378, 2000) and May 18-19, 2001 in Beijing, China (Li, Ge, Werther and Bruhns, Chem. Eng. Technol., 24(11), 1097, 2001).
