“…These amendments to the party and state law make XJPT a source of law. In XJPT, Xi outlines seven principles for EC: civilization prospers when ecology prospers; clear waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets; a sound ecology is the most inclusive form of welfare; mountains, waters, forests, farmlands, lakes and grasslands form a biotic community; protect the ecology with the strictest regulations and laws; mobilize the whole society to build a beautiful China; jointly promote a global EC (Fang, 2021; Gao, 2021; Lin, 2021; Shi, 2021; Wu, 2021; Zhao, 2021). From a plain reading of these principles, the environment is ideologically central to the future sustainability of civilization.…”

This article focuses on how Chinese state actors understand the concept of sustainable development and implement policies for achieving the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We examine the concept of Ecological Civilization (EC) that has gained momentum within China and examine how EC is constructed around certain organizational principles that are difficult to export without expanding Beijing's political control abroad. Based on the example of a coal‐fired power plant in Kenya, we also explore the potential opportunities EC presents for African stakeholders to hold Chinese state actors to account for China's normative principles.
