The Asia-Pacific Summit 2018 organised by the South Korea-based Universal Peace Federation and supported by the Government of Nepal
Climate change has emerged as a major threat to humanity and we need to forge cooperation and collaboration to fight it back, Oli said, while inaugurating the four-day summit on the theme "Addressing Critical Challenges of Our Time: Independence, Mutual Prosperity and Universal Values."
The biggest challenge of our time is essentially the threat of terrorism and climate challenge, former prime minister H D Deve Gowda said and pointed out that these two are "posing threat to humanity irrespective of national border, religion and gender."
