We will continue to build core competitive advantages in the "five areas" of water transportation economy, safety and emergency response, environmental protection and energy conservation, modern logistics and intelligent water transportation, and provide more efficient and high-quality scientific and technological support for the scientific development of transportation under the new normal.

The meeting studied the challenges and opportunities faced by the development of the Academy of Sciences under the new normal economic development. In the future, the Academy of Water Resources will strive to build a platform for personal entrepreneurship development and a platform for scientific research and cultural construction. It will strive to strengthen research, expand industry, and ensure proper management and management. To achieve this task, the Academy of Water Resources will further strengthen its service awareness and improve its support capabilities; strengthen its sense of innovation and increase its core competitiveness; strengthen its sense of responsibility and improve its ability to perform duties; strengthen the awareness of rules and improve management capabilities.
