Build a Stronger Shanghai Cooperation Organization

The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is the world’s largest comprehensive regional cooperation organization in terms of geographical coverage and population. Over more than 20 years, the SCO has played an exemplary role and made remarkable achievements in fostering a new type of international relations and building a community with a shared future for humanity.

上合組織是世界上幅員最廣、人口最多的綜合性區域合作組織。二十多年來，從加強政治互信到共擔國際道義，從維護地區安全穩定到促進共同繁榮發展，上合組織為推動構建新型國際關係和打造人類命運共同體發揮示範作用，取得了輝煌成就。

The past 20 years have seen evolving international developments and profound reshaping of the global governance system. These years have also seen the vigorous growth of the SCO and the fruitful, mutually beneficial cooperation among its member states. Over the past two decades, guided by the Shanghai Spirit of mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality, consultation, respect for diversity of civilizations and pursuit of common development, the SCO has endeavored to promote world peace, development and human progress, and to explore new ground, both theoretically and with actual steps, with a view to building a new type of international relations and a community with a shared future for mankind.
