Experts, social organizations and government representatives from around the world will host and participate these more than 500 conferences and exhibitions and a series of activities such as a membership meeting of more than 1,300 governments, non-governments and people from more than 160 countries. As an IUCN member unit, the CBCGDF will actively contact domestic and foreign social organizations during the application of the side-event, and already invited the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Biodiversity International, Center for Large Landscape Conservation and the IUCN WCPA Connectivity Conservation Specialist Group, Operation Earth and Evergreen Center for Sustainable Development to jointly organize the side-events. The themes of three side-events to be hosted by CBCGDF will be: Treasuring biodiversity to nourish our people and sustain the planet, enhance natural landscape and wildlife conservation and Mobilize Youth Participation in Nature Conservation.
