It will promote an increased alignment between EU-Thailand interests, principles, policies and values, complemented by increased understanding and visibility of the EU, its role and values in the country, region and the world. More specifically, the facility will promote universal and shared values on human rights, gender equality, inclusion, democracy, security, the environment, business and trade relations. By doing so it will deepen bilateral trade and investment relations, based on shared principles on sustainable production and consumption, strengthen environmental protection and conservation in Thailand, while supporting climate change mitigation and adaptation and, more broadly, the implementation of the 2030 agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and of the Global Gateway. It will also allow the EU to uphold universal human rights values, and to better respond to global challenges and build resilience in a flexible, forward-looking and strategic manner in its relationship with Thailand and other partners. The Cooperation Facility will consist of a wide range of tools, initiatives and activities to achieve the objective of advancing EU strategic interests and priorities in Thailand, of enhancing the EU-Thailand partnership, and of strengthening strategic communication (via public campaigns) and public diplomacy (where relevant)."}, {"bbox": [1034, 1679, 1142, 1704], "category": "Page-footer", "text": "Page 3 of 17"}]
