The two youth unions agreed to continue strengthening cooperation, focusing on enhancing youth delegation exchanges; coordinating international volunteer activities; promoting exchanges, training, and capacity building for youth; and expanding cooperation in innovation, smart manufacturing, environmental protection, and sustainable development.
