Research Abstract	In the face of deteriorating natural surroundings and community environments in Inner Mongolia of China, we could proceed our academic research for regional environment improvement according to plan. In particular, we embodied a framework of collaboration among government, companies and residents and built a system for environment improvement through a tree planting project while promoting multi-management of agriculture and stockbreeding. By applying a social inclusion approach, a system of “New Public” for community environment policies and regional regeneration has been accomplished, and we now promote modeling the system. Since the system attracts strong interest from local government and residents, it is expected to be a pioneering approach for community environment improvement. A further research study will be required to deepen the modeling.
