From May 23 to 27, 2016, the second session of the United Nations conference on environment was held in Nairobi, Kenya. A series of reports show that a quarter of the world's deaths are related to environmental pollution. Environmental degradation causes people to die early and threatens public health, therefore it is urgent to improve the quality of the natural environment so as to ensure healthy and sustainable development of the human race. It is a common goal for all peoples that everyone around the world can live with honor and with dignity.

In order to help students’ gain a new understanding of environmental protection and human health problems and strengthen interdisciplinary academic communication between Chinese and international students, we hereby announce the hosting of the second annual Academic Forum for Chinese and International PhD Students.
