When looking into sustainable development from the angle of international relationships, we must insist on the correct historical view. The concept of sustainable development has developed step by step from a marginalized issue to a critical position in international political agenda today; we must also focus on the big picture, since every change of global political pattern is connected with sustainable development; we need to hold the role notion as well, as China is gradually transferring from the receiver to a leader of sustainable development.

Sustainable development is a wonderful platform. How to share “international experience” internally, introduce the international front-line achievements to China, and how to talk in “Chinese style”, strengthen the theory of sustainable development with Chinese story, offers perspectives for China Sustainability Tribune to stand out.
