SANCTUARY, Shangri-La's Care for Nature project was launched in 2010 with the
aim of making a concerted effort towards biodiversity conservation and habitat
protection. Hotels work on individualised projects which are developed,
tracked and monitored after a biodiversity assessment takes place. To date, there
are a total of 19 Sanctuary projects in place engaging stakeholders worldwide.
In 2012, Sanctuary, Shangri-La’s Care for Nature Projects were launched in city
hotels in China in order to encourage the protection of local habitats and even
wetlands.
