The EcoPartnerships program is an innovative manifestation of U.S.-China cooperation on energy and environmental issues. EcoPartnerships bring together experts and innovators from U.S. cities, states, companies, universities, and NGOs, and their counterparts in China to work together, exchange best practices, and find solutions to local challenges.

The core of the EcoPartnerships program is the peer-to-peer collaboration that occurs at the partner level, facilitated by a Secretariat who selects new EcoPartnerships annually in each country.
