Kubuqi International Desert Forum

The mission of the Kubuqi International Desert Forum is to "Share the Value of Deserts." The forum is held at the Qixing Lake in the Kubuqi Desert, Ordos, Inner Mongolia. It has been successfully convened three times in 2007, 2009, and 2011. The forum has fully demonstrated the latest scientific and technological achievements in global desertification control, highlighted China's responsible image as a major country, and showcased the remarkable accomplishments in ecological construction and the development of sand-related industries in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

In 2013, the fourth Kubuqi International Desert Forum became the only global international desert forum organized by the United Nations in China. Attendees included Wang Yang, then Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Vice Premier of the State Council; Zhao Shucong, then Director of the State Forestry Administration; Li Ganjie, then Vice Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection; Ambassador Sha Zukang; Luc Gnacadja, then Executive Secretary of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD); Achim Steiner, then United Nations Under-Secretary-General and Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP); and Yukio Hatoyama, former Prime Minister of Japan.

At this conference center, CREATOR provided an efficient, flawless, and stable control system for the Kubuqi International Desert Forum. Using the CR-WIFIG7 wireless touchscreen as the control terminal, signals were received via a radio frequency receiver, transmitted to the central control host, which then managed other devices.
