London/Taipei, April 30 (CNA) A plenary session of the Czech Senate on Wednesday voted 58:0 to approve a resolution supporting Taiwan s participation in all meetings, mechanisms and activities under the World Health Organization (WHO).
In addition to urging the Czech government to express its support for Taiwan s bid to participate in the WHO, the resolution also affirmed the gains between the two sides in their anti-pandemic cooperation, agreed under a joint statement in April 2020.
Czech Senate President Miloš Vystrčil, who visited Taiwan in late August despite a warning from Beijing, shared the result of the Senate vote on his Twitter account on Thursday.

In May of 2001, NDI proposed a new idea: support our long term partner, South Africa’s Ministry of Environment, to help local and provincial governments understand climate change; expand civil society and local communities participation across the country on these issues; and increase overall public awareness and understanding about South Africa’s environmental fragility as a result of climate change.
At the time, climate change decisions were managed by heads of state and guided by the national commitments they made about carbon emissions and credit swaps. NDI early on recognized the disconnect between international capitals around the world engaging in big stakes climate decisions, and the role of local politicians, citizens and legislators, who could sustain climate action when national governments changed.
