Daqingzhen Island is located about 45 nautical miles east of Hong Kong and about 13 nautical miles south of Shanwei. The island and its surrounding waters are an important ecological hub for fish migration and reproduction, with significant seasonal water flows bringing ecological diversity and complex seabed terrain providing good habitats for a variety of organisms. The establishment of this CCAfa helps to protect and restore these valuable marine resources, respond to global biodiversity conservation action agendas and goals such as the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, and promote sustainable development.

 

The CBCGDF Conservation Area Working Group plans to take a series of scientific and effective conservation measures, including:

 

1. Promoting Public Awareness

 

By carrying out various science popularization and education activities, we aim to raise public awareness and participation in marine biodiversity conservation.

 

2. Promoting the Inclusion of Daqingzhen in the National Marine Conservation Area

 

Through expert policy recommendations, we aim to include Daqingzhen Island and its surrounding waters into the national marine conservation area to ensure long-term and effective protection of the ecosystem in this region.

The CBCGDF Conservation Area Working Group looks forward to the continued efforts of all stakeholders to ensure the long-term health and prosperity of the marine ecosystem, making the Daqingzhen Island conservation area a model for marine biodiversity conservation and leaving a healthier and richer marine environment for future generations.
