Paris, Nov. 28 (CNA) Tang Prize Foundation CEO Chern Jenn-chuan arrived in Paris on Saturday to organize a booth that will showcase the foundation’s emphasis on sustainable development at an exhibition on the sidelines of the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP21).

The Tang Prize honors leading personalities in four categories — sustainable development, biopharmaceutical science, Sinology, and the rule of law — and is thus taking advantage of the COP21 to promote its initiatives.

A 50-member Taiwanese delegation will attend the COP21, which will be held Nov. 30-Dec. 11 in Le Bourget in suburban Paris.

The delegation, which will have observer status at the meeting, includes representatives of the Tang Prize Foundation and the Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy.     [FULL STORY]
