Ever wondered how the SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization) is leveling up on the digital & green front? Spoiler: China is at the heart of this wave, pumping investments into next-gen internet links, 5G networks, data centers, and eco-friendly tech across member states. 🚀🌱
In a recent chat with CGTN, Shi Jing, an assistant professor at Tsinghua University’s Institute for International and Area Studies, spilled the tea ☕ on the bloc’s fresh strategy. According to him, the goal is simple: connect people with better internet while slashing carbon footprints—think green data hubs, solar-powered telecom towers, and low-emission smart cities. 🌆🔋
What’s super exciting? This push is all about creating opportunities for young innovators. Shi Jing notes that China is ready to team up with universities, startups, and tech hubs across the SCO to offer training, hackathons, and incubation programs. Imagine coding marathons fueled by solar energy and workshops on carbon-tracking apps—pure innovation! 💡🤝
For tech-savvy youth in South Asia and Southeast Asia, this means better digital access, greener solutions, and a front-row seat to shape the next-gen tech landscape. Whether you’re building an AI-powered farming app or a platform for climate data, the SCO’s green-digital drive is a playground for your ideas. Let’s get involved and make our mark! 🌏✨
Stay tuned for more on how this digital green synergy unfolds and how you can plug in—literally and figuratively. Together, we’re coding a sustainable future. 💚👩💻👨💻
