(Cinet)- Lam Dong Provincial People’s Committee has organized a seminar about a technique for building the Lang Biang biosphere reserve to be submitted to UNESCO for recognition this September.
The Lang Biang biosphere reserve is expected to span 260,000 ha, with its core area of 56,000ha covering Bidoup-Nui Ba National Park. The Lang Biang biosphere reserve’s core area, a national centre for biodiversity protection, is home to more than 2,000 plant species and nearly 400 animal species, of which 127 are rare species identified on Vietnam’s red list.
The value of Lang Biang lies in its connection to the culture of the Central Highlands region, said Professor Nguyen Hoang Tri, General Secretary of the National Man and the Biosphere Programme, at a recent conference to discuss technical consulting for and the construction of the Lang Biang biosphere reserve.
In the next time, the National Man and the Biosphere Programme and the Direction will make survey to adjust some contents about tourism and culture in the area.
The additional surveys on the participation of the community and socio-political organisations in preserving and developing the reserve were essential, as were presenting images of the reserve’s fauna and flora and environmental protection programmes as part of the mandatory documentation to be submitted to UNESCO.
Surrounding the core area is an 86,000-hectare buffer zone filled with communes. The remaining 118,000ha is a wide transitional area covering parts of Da Lat city and Lac Duong, Lam Ha, Duc Trong and Don Duong districts.
