Formulating the National Botanical Garden System Layout Plan of China:Background,procedures,ideas and key considerations

2021年10月,习近平总书记宣布启动北京、广州等国家植物园体系建设。为高质量推进国家植物园体系建设,国家林业和草原局会同住房和城乡建设部、中国科学院编制了《国家植物园体系布局方案》。综合考虑国家重大战略、主要气候类型与典型植被区划特点、生物多样性保护优先区域、服务经济社会发展需要等因素,根据现有植物园的分布情况、工作基础,依据国家代表性、科学系统性、社会公益性等准入条件,在已设立2个国家植物园的基础上,遴选了14个国家植物园候选园纳入空间布局,构建布局合理、功能互补的国家植物园体系,按照“成熟一个、设立一个”原则,稳步推进国家植物园体系建设。本文简要介绍了《国家植物园体系布局方案》编制背景、程序、思路和重点考虑,展望未来国家植物园体系建设。国家植物园体系建设将有效发挥国家植物园在生物多样性保护中的重要作用,为实施《昆明-蒙特利尔全球生物多样性框架》提供中国方案。

Background:In October 2021,Chinese President XI Jinping announced the launch of the construction of a national botanical garden system in cities such as Beijing and Guangzhou.To facilitate the high-quality development of this national botanical garden system,the National Forestry and Grassland Administration of the People’s Republic of China,in collaboration with the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese Academy of Sciences,devised the National Botanical Garden System Layout Plan of China.Results:This plan was formulated by considering various factors,including major national strategies,distinct climate types,regional vegetation characteristics,priority areas for biodiversity conservation,and alignment of economic and social developmental needs.By incorporating the distribution and operational foundation of existing botanical gardens,the layout strategically encompasses fourteen candidate national botanical gardens in addition to two established national botanical gardens.These selections are based on criteria such as national representation,scientific systematicity,and public welfare.The plan fosters a comprehensive national botanical garden system that boasts rational layout and complementary functions.Outlook:The national botanical garden system will be incrementally advanced following the principle of“mature one and establish one”.This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the background,procedures,ideas and critical considerations involved in the development of the National Botanical Garden System Layout Plan of China.The creation of the national botanical garden system will significantly contribute to biodiversity conservation and offer a distinct Chinese approach toward realizing the goals set by the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
