The ASEAN Centre for Biodiversity (ACB) was established in 2005 by the ASEAN Member States as a response to biodiversity loss in the region. The ACB supports and coordinates the implementation of activities in the ASEAN toward the conservation and sustainable use of biological diversity, for the benefit of ASEAN Member States, the region, and the global community. It also serves as the Secretariat of the ASEAN Heritage Parks Programme.
