In 2002, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) launched its Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS) Initiative with the goal of establishing a conservation network and achieving international recognition for GIAHS to protect its associated landscapes, biodiversity, knowledge and culture, thus laying a foundation for its sustainable management. According to the definition by the FAO, GIAHS refers to "remarkable land use systems and landscapes which are rich in globally significant biological diversity evolving from the co-adaptation of a community with its environment and its needs and aspirations for sustainable development." Compared to the World Cultural and Natural Heritage designated by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization(UNESCO), the development history of GIAHS is still relatively short. However, GIAHS has developed rapidly and vigorously worldwide because of its innovative ideas and with the strong support from member countries including China. Up till August 2018, the FAO has designated 52 GIAHS in 21 countries across the globe.
