INTRODUCTION
Celebrating the significant milestone of its 30th anniversary under the theme of 30 Years of Taking Forward Conservation: Together for Asia’s Biodiversity, OPCFHK reinforces its commitment to giant panda conservation – the Foundation’s flagship focus, while bolstering its dedication to safeguarding local biodiversity in Hong Kong.
For three decades, OPCFHK has been a steadfast champion of conservation through a wide range of impactful initiatives. From the influential No Straw Campaign and swift responses to 673 cetacean stranding cases in Hong Kong since 2006, and 109 sea turtle rescues since 2000, efforts to restore giant panda facilities in Sichuan, research on wild giant pandas, and its comprehensive, long-standing advocacy for horseshoe crab protection. Together, these initiatives exemplify OPCFHK's proactive approach to wildlife conservation and environmental protection.
A series of conservation and fundraising activities were also unveiled, including a charity auction supported by the Foundation’s ambassadors, and a dog-friendly carnival, to encourage community support for the protection of precious species and natural ecosystems in Hong Kong and Asia.
