In the face of global climate change, increasing habitat degradation, deforestation, air, soil and water pollution, and an impending worldwide animal and plant extinction crisis, a group of internationally distinguished concerned and conservation-oriented scientists and conservationists have come together to create the International Centre of Biodiversity and Primate Conservation (ICBPC). The ICBPC is housed at Dali University, Yunnan Province, China and run through Dali University and Northwest University, two highly distinguished educational institutions in China. All conservation-related projects and actions, and financial management of the Centre requires approval and discussion by the Executive Committee, which consists of a highly respected board of international conservation scientists and experts, donors, environmental journalists, entrepreneurs and political leaders dedicated to protecting the world’s environment.
