Educational Activity

NGOs, students and QMM employees will observe aquatic birds during 2 days. The morning session of the event runs from 5h00hrs until 9h00hrs with birdwatching activities and will be followed by sensitisation about the 2011 theme.
In 2010, within the 2 days we observed around 300 aquatic birds. QMM supports this educational programm since 2002 and this year will be the 10th anniversary of our birdwatching event in collaboration with Asity Madagascar.

We will teach courses relating to the conservation of birds in our province for field trips, currently taking place. We will conduct awareness raising talks throughout the year. Additionally, we will offer a trip to Lagunas de los Pozuelos (Ramsar Site) to observe migratory plovers coming from the North Pole.

We have been collaborating with the State Academy of Administration in Bhopal, central India, over the last years in organising birding camps. We have also produced many films on birds. We are currently in the post production stage and are about to finish two documentaries on migratory birds. We will be organising a mini-documentary festival to mark the World Migratory Bird Day this year.

Associated Media will showcase migratory birds in "Paradise on the Earth" - Kashmir. We will involve many schools for film showing sessions to create general awareness about the plight and misuse of marshy wetlands and depressions - the home of migratory birds - for constructing houses and resendential areas.
