Bird watching activities and education awareness programmes in local schools, youth groups and community levels

The seminar is aimed to motivate educational departments of nature protected areas for making a wetland visitor center. The seminar was organised with the support of the Matra programme of Embassy of Netherlands and in collaboration with Wetlands International Russia. Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust also took part in the seminar - the head of Wetland Link International, Chris Rostron made some presentations about the UK experience in making wetland centers.

For the first time, farmers, mostly peasants, will join children from basic schools within the catchment communities of Sakumo Ramsar Site to plant trees and do birdwatching at the Site. The school children will train the farmers on site how to use binoculars and bird counting techniques. The whole exercise will be supervised by staff of the Wildlife Division and Friends of Ramsar Sites.

WE INVITE SCHOOLS IN ONE OF THE NATURE RESERVES AND WE IDENTIFY THE NUMBER OF SPECIES OF BIRDS, ESPECIALLY MIGRATORY ONES. THEN WE PROCEED TO LECTURE ON BIODIVERSITY AND THE ROLE OF BIRDS IN ECOLOGY. WE ALSO SHOW SOME DOCUMENTARIES ON BIRDS.
