Both parties have agreed to engage in exchanges and cooperation in biodiversity, environmental protection, and women's empowerment.

To explore bees and other biodiversity conservation opportunities - establish a network of contacts with potential partners (companies, foundations, international financial institutions, governments, non-profit organizations, etc.) to propose solutions in biodiversity, environmental conservation, gender equality and related fields.
To joint implement international projects in the field of environmental protection and biodiversity.
To invite the other party to actively speak up for developing countries in the global environmental conferences.
