The APEC Senior Officials' Meeting (SOM3) under Peru's Presidency resulted in significant achievements, including the adoption of three ministerial statements, two instruments promoting the transition to clean energy, and guidelines to tackle food loss and waste. Peruvian Ambassador Carlos Vasquez praised the progress made in aligning with Peru's thematic priorities and setting the stage for the APEC Economic Leaders Week in November. The unanimous approval of the Trujillo Statement on Food Security marked a milestone after two years without consensus. Moreover, the focus on clean and low-carbon hydrogen utilization in the Asia-Pacific region signifies a commitment to sustainable energy practices. Peru's proposal for guidelines on low-carbon hydrogen implementation reflects a forward-looking approach to decarbonizing economic sectors. The nation's efforts to engage diverse stakeholders and prioritize inclusivity in discussions underscore a dedication to addressing multifaceted challenges. With a series of deliverables already presented throughout the year, Peru aims to announce more accomplishments during the upcoming APEC Economic Leaders Week, solidifying its position as a leading economy at the forum.
