چکیده

The priority on the agenda of decision-makers in the international community today is environmental protection. Given that minor national environmental tensions have escalated into major international conflicts, the significance of this issue continues to grow. The dangers posed by these tensions have developed to such an extent that they serve as an alarm for eco-inhabitants, primarily due to noticeable changes in the ecosphere and the threats to human populations. Hence, any disregard for environmental threats will result in irreparable consequences, leading to severe human crises. Consequently, the global community, despite improved international relations, capacities, existing mechanisms, and global guidelines, must strive to protect global security from predominant challenges and maintain international peace in a continuous cycle. For this reason, environmental diplomacy has become a major concern in international relations, influencing the interactions between nations and citizens, thereby strengthening peace and friendship. In this context, fostering positive interactions at the national level, as well as promoting strong regional and global engagements, represents an effective strategy to combat increasing environmental threats. In this regard, both developed and developing countries in Asia are actively involved in this process. Amidst enhanced international cooperation and constructive interactions, the objective of this study is to explore effective strategies for addressing international environmental challenges.
