Under Sustainability Pillar 4: Sustainable Campus Objective 8: Preservation and Conservation of Nature, the plan mandates the development of a flora and fauna inventory, the creation of a digital biodiversity information system, and the formulation of a policy\/guideline for flora and fauna conservation and preservation. These initiatives ensure systematic monitoring of species within university-managed ecosystems, including the UKM Permanent Forest Reserve, Botanical Gardens, and Living Labs. The policy aligns with SDG 15: Life on Land, reinforcing UKM\u2019s commitment to safeguarding biodiversity and restoring ecosystems affected by university operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Policy Created:<\/strong>&nbsp;2022<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Policy Review:&nbsp;<\/strong>2025<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/kelestarian\/data\/publications\/UKM-SUSTAINABILITY-STRATEGIC-PLAN-2030.pdf\" width=\"900\" height=\"1000\" allow=\"autoplay\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<h4 class=\"kt-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading12211_3002a4-36\"><strong>2.

Established in 1993 in alignment with the Rio Declaration&#8217;s Agenda 21, CIS is recognized as one of UKM Centres of Excellence. The centre houses an impressive collection of over 100,000 insect specimens, including more than 120 type specimens, making it an invaluable resource for researchers and conservationists worldwide. CIS also publishes SERANGGA, an internationally circulated journal that disseminates research findings on insect systematics and diversity, with a focus on Southeast Asia and beyond. Through its extensive collection and research publications, CIS contributes significantly to the understanding and preservation of insect biodiversity, aligning with global conservation goals and promoting ecological knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roles and Objectives of the Centre for Insect Systematics (CIS) at UKM:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol style=\"list-style-type:lower-roman\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Provide Essential Infrastructure:<\/strong> Develop and maintain specialized facilities for the preservation and management of an extensive arthropod collection, ensuring the long-term integrity of these valuable specimens.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Serve as a Reference Centre:<\/strong> Establish CIS as the primary reference hub for taxonomic and systematic studies related to Malaysia\u2019s entomological heritage, supporting scientific research and conservation efforts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Conduct National Surveys and Inventories:<\/strong> Carry out comprehensive surveys and inventories of Malaysia&#8217;s insect fauna, contributing to a detailed record of the country&#8217;s biodiversity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Achieve Regional and Global Recognition:<\/strong> Position CIS as a leading institution in insect systematics, recognized both regionally and internationally for its expertise and contributions to entomology.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Document and Disseminate Information:<\/strong> Compile and share detailed information on the insect diversity of Malaysia and surrounding regions, making it accessible for research, conservation, and public awareness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Become the National Centre for Insect Biodiversity Data:<\/strong> Act as the official repository and distributor of insect biodiversity data for Malaysia, supporting national and international biodiversity initiatives.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Train Future Entomologists:<\/strong> Provide training and resources for biologists and entomologists with a focus on insect systematics, fostering the next generation of experts in the field.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Collaborate with Local and International Researchers: <\/strong>Engage in collaborative research with entomologists from Malaysia and around the world, promoting knowledge exchange and advancing the study of insect biodiversity globally.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through these roles and objectives, CIS aims to enhance the understanding, preservation, and appreciation of insect diversity, supporting both national and global conservation goals and reinforcing Malaysia&#8217;s position in the field of entomology.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"910\" height=\"468\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/kelestarian\/wp-content\/uploads\/monitoring-iucn-and-other-conservation-species\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/kelestarian\/wp-content\/uploads\/monitoring-iucn-and-other-conservation-species\/image-1.png 910w, https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/kelestarian\/wp-content\/uploads\/monitoring-iucn-and-other-conservation-species\/image-1-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/kelestarian\/wp-content\/uploads\/monitoring-iucn-and-other-conservation-species\/image-1-768x395.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 910px) 100vw, 910px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Centre for Insect Systematics (CIS)<br>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/cis\/about-cis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/cis\/about-cis\/<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monitoring IUCN and other Conservation Species 1.
