IB-CAS has developed substantive cooperation with researchers and organizations around the world. IB-CAS has been a key player in a number of important international cooperation projects in various fields of plant science. "Flora of China", jointly completed by botanists from China, the United States and other countries, is the largest such English compilation in the world. Since 2011, the institute has launched a new international project," Flora of the Pan-Himalaya", which is expected to address several key scientific issues regarding this international hotspot of plant taxonomy. The project has received support from the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and CAS. In 2012, IB-CAS was named a National Base for International Cooperation.
