The project gives a special significance to green house gasses absorption through conservation of rare and unique lilac species developed through the laborious fifty years? selection by two fellow-countrymen, Sagitova Maryam and Tadeusz Dzevitsky. The conservation is crucial due to degradation of the site of mother lilac garden, a place of seed and seedling materials for lilac promulgation, as well as due to shrinkage of lilac species in the city parks. The real threat of losing the lilac genetic fund in Almaty was a result of the growing demand for land for construction inside the city, mass unregulated cutting, devastation of lilac from the places of its concentrated growing, the lack of irrigation, protective and promulgation activities as well as the low livelihood level and low awareness of local people.
The purpose of the project is to absorb green house gasses through preservation of genetic fund for the unique selection grades of the lilac which are on the verge of disappearance.
The project tasks are to create a lilac park at the vicinities near Almaty, as a reservation for the lilac genofund and to promote public awareness about the existing problem of the lilac genofund rescue by means of the Lilac Festival conducting.
