Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, during his trip to Denmark, visited the State of Green in Copenhagen.
State of Green is a not-for-profit, public-private partnership between the Danish government and the country’s three leading business associations (Danish Industry, Green Power Denmark, and the Danish Agriculture and Food Council).
“Minister Mirzoyan familiarized himself with the company’s activities, Denmark’s significant achievements in developing a green economy through innovative technologies and solutions, its vision for future sustainable development, and opportunities for international cooperation,” the foreign ministry said in a press release.
As a successful example of partnership between the Danish government and the country’s three leading business associations in industry, green economy, and agriculture, the company brings together the public and private sectors, engaging more than 600 government bodies, business representatives, academic institutions, experts, and researchers.
Among other priorities, the company pays particular attention to biodiversity, recognizing it as a key component of green economic development. In this context, during Minister Mirzoyan’s visit, discussions also addressed cooperation under the UN Convention on Biological Diversity conferences. The company will participate next year in the COP17 in Yerevan, involving the relevant business stakeholders.
