OUR STRENGTHS
Research and Advocacy
PACS is at the forefront of transforming Shanxi, China’s largest coal-producing province, from a coal-dependent, high-carbon economy into a diversified and
sustainable model for the future. Beyond China, we advocate for accelerating the green, low-carbon energy transition in developing countries, where China’s role is crucial in driving change. Through rigorous research and strategic insights, we champion scalable, sustainable solutions that address both local and global climate challenges.
Communication and Amplification
We engage deeply with communities directly affected by the climate crisis, as well as with climate and energy experts, activists, and media—both in China and globally. Our storytelling not only highlights the urgent realities faced by climate impacted communities but, more importantly, amplifies the voices of those taking bold steps toward a fossil-free future. By sharing these transformative stories, we inspire action, foster hope, and reinforce the possibility of a world no longer defined by the fear of climate catastrophe.
Civic Exchange
PACS fosters dialogue and collaboration between civil society groups in China and Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) partner countries to build a shared vision for collective climate action. We also empower the next generation of climate leaders —particularly youth—by equipping them with the tools, knowledge, and platforms needed to shape resilient, sustainable futures. Through nurturing local talent and facilitating cross-border partnerships, we are laying the foundation for a global movement toward a climate-safe and climate-prosperous world.
