Om Kina Biodiversitetsbevarande och Grön Utveckling Foundation (CBCGDF): En Kort Introduktion

Kina Biodiversitetsbevarande och Grön Utveckling Foundation (CBCGDF) grundades 1985, rotad i återinförandet av den då utdöda inhemska arten - Milu hjorten (Père David's hjort, Elaphurus davidianus) tillbaka till Kina från Storbritannien. För att välkomna hem Milu hjortarna som skänktes av Woburn Abbey i Storbritannien, grundade Kina "China Milu Foundation", av 3 vice ordföranden för den kinesiska folks politiska rådgivande konferensen (CPPCC). Med födelsen av Förenta Nationernas konvention om biologisk mångfald (CBD), utvidgade stiftelsen senare sin mission och döptes om till "China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation". Vid 2024 har CBCGDF växt till en nationell ledande organisation för biologisk mångfald, mobiliserande olika sektorer av samhället för att aktivt delta i biologisk mångfaldsskydd.

Med sin mission "Att göra denna värld till en bättre plats för allt liv", engagerar sig China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation (CBCGDF) aktivt i global miljöstyrning. CBCGDF är medlem i International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) och Förenta Nationernas Global Compact. Det är också observatör för konventionen om internationell handel med hotade arter av vilda djur och växter (CITES), Förenta Nationernas ramkonvention om klimatförändringar (UNFCCC), konventionen om biologisk mångfald (CBD), Förenta Nationernas konvention för att bekämpa ökenspridning (UNCCD), Ramsarkonventionen om våtmarker, den internationella konventionen om växtgenetiska resurser för livsmedel och jordbruk (ITPGRFA), den mellanstatliga vetenskapspolitiska plattformen för biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster (IPBES), Mellanstatliga panelen om klimatförändringar (IPCC), International Seabed Authority (ISA) och Stockholmskonventionen, samt den första kinesiska icke-statliga organisationen som är partner till konventionen om migrerande arter (CMS). Dessutom är det en datapublicerare för Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF).
