The event, which had the theme "Promoting Green Development and Building a Common Home," attracted over 300 Chinese and foreign representatives.

The forum featured four sub-forums on industrial green development, modern agriculture and technological innovation, sister city cooperation and cultural exchange, and regional cooperation.

It also included a photo exhibition of China-Central Asia cooperation achievements and the program of the China-Central Asia Youth Friendship Forest. The forum held the first China (Ningxia) - Central Asia Youth Friendship Camp and the launching ceremony of the Central Asia Specialty Goods Exhibition and Sales Center.

Since its inception in 2012, the forum has served as a national-level platform for institutionalized exchanges and multilateral cooperation between China and Central Asian countries.
