The Community Conservation Area system (CCAfa) pioneered by China Biodiversity Conservation and Green Development Foundation aims to establish an effective mechanism for the whole society to participate in biodiversity protection, and to safeguard the unique system of typical ecosystems, species, genes, and natural landscapes. The various community-based conservation areas are divided into two types: those for natural protection and those for cultural protection. Natural protection is aimed at endangered animals and plants that need to be protected due to human activities and environmental changes. Cultural protection is aimed at landscapes and buildings with outstanding cultural and historical value. The establishment of the CCAfa system is to encourage and support volunteers, non-governmental organizations and communities to actively participate in biodiversity conservation, and to build a platform that takes conservation actions as the core and focuses on publicity and education to summarize and promote the experience and achievements of protected areas. Through mobilizing and upgrading social forces, the CCAfa system enables endangered species and ecosystems to be quickly and effectively protected, so that biodiversity can coexist harmoniously in a good ecological environment. The CCAfa system is an innovative model for biodiversity conservation and green development. It actively establishes the relationship between the community and the local government, effectively makes up for the lack of private protection forces, and assists administrative law enforcement agencies to increase law enforcement. China is a signatory of the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), and it is our responsibility and obligation to protect the earth's biodiversity. In the practice of conservation, the CCAfa system actively puts forward legislative suggestions, improving the legal system related to biodiversity conservation.Sampling Description
