Chinese name
China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation[18]
The China Green Development Association was first established in 1985. During its more than 30 years of development, it has focused on scientific research and public welfare, continued to focus on biodiversity conservation and promoting green economic development in China, received widespread social support, and has become one of the most influential foundations in this field in China.
The predecessor of CGDF is the China Milu Foundation, which has experienced three important stages of development.First, the initial stage of the foundation for reintroducing milu deer.In 1900, the Eight Power Allied Forces captured Beijing, and the Yongding River flooded, resulting in the disappearance of the world's only 200 milu deer population in the royal hunting park in the southern suburbs of Beijing.In May 1985, with the deepening of diplomatic ties between China and Britain, Marquis Tavis Tok, the owner of the Utopia Temple manor in Britain, offered to return the 38 milu deer preserved in the manor to China as a symbol of friendship between the two countries.In order to make the milu deer return to their hometown smoothly and reproduce, Lu Zhengcao, Bao Erhan, Qian Changzhao and other comrades who were then vice chairmen of the CPPCC National Committee initiated and established the China Milu Foundation.By 1993, 38 milu deer that were initially reintroduced back to China had grown to more than 200, and were successfully released for the first time in the old Yangtze River in Shishou, Hubei Province. The reintroduction project of milu deer has become an example of reintroduction of species in the world.
What will be the future development direction of the Foundation after the successful completion of the mission at the beginning of its establishment?In 1992, China Green Development Association ushered in the second important development stage.That year, China officially signed and joined the Convention on Biological Diversity. The Foundation believed that expanding the protection of a single species to the protection of overall biodiversity would be conducive to promoting China's comprehensive integration with the international community. So, under the instructions of the then Vice Premier Wen Jiabao of the State Council, in 1997, after being reported to the Chinese Association for Science and Technology for approval, the China Green Development Council was established by the "China Milu Foundation"It was renamed as "China Biodiversity Conservation Foundation" for the first time, and the business scope of China Green Development Association was also expanded to the protection of ecosystem diversity, species diversity, and genetic diversity, laying a solid foundation for the foundation's future in-depth research and practice in this field.
In 2009, China Green Development Council ushered in the third development and reform.During this period, with the transformation of the global economic form, the process of green development has been significantly accelerated. Biodiversity conservation and utilization has shown unique economic value in the field of green development.In 2009, under the leadership of Hu Deping and Hu Zhaoguang, the "China Biodiversity Conservation Foundation" was renamed as "China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation" again. The development path of China Green Development Association after entering the 21st century was clear, and the top-level development framework was completed.In 2015, under the leadership of the council with Hu Deping as the chairman and Zhou Jinfeng as the secretary-general, the China Green Development Council (CGDF) started the internal reform of the organization, reform and innovation from the management system, personnel employment, business scope and other aspects, invited senior academic experts, industry leaders, discipline leaders, etc. to join, and widely recruited young people such as college students and graduate students,As well as senior environmentalists who have been fighting in the front line of environmental protection for a long time, the foundation has been revitalized, and has formed expert working committee, legal working committee, green enterprise working committee, botanical garden working committee, nature reserve working committee, birdwatching working committee, starry sky working committee, Lvhui Ancient Village Friends AssociationA series of secondary working institutions, such as the Wildlife Protection Working Committee, have focused on the research and practice of ecological civilization, the construction of China's protected area system, environmental public interest litigation, plastic reduction and waste reduction, driven by special funds such as the Special Fund for Promoting the Development of Sand Industry, the Protection Fund for Urban Drinking Water Sources, the Special Fund for Wolf Totem Grassland, and the Public Welfare Fund for Water SafetyEcological poverty alleviation work, volunteer system construction, international exchange and cooperation, global environmental governance, college students' environmental protection exchange (Green University) and other work, among which many representative work has aroused warm responses at home and abroad.
