On that particular day a birdwatching trip will be organised at the Farakka Barrage site where thousands of migratory waterbirds are coming during winter months. This birdwatching trip is meant for local people and school children for awareness generation about birds of the region.

This proposal is in support of the tireless efforts been applied by both International and local biodiversity conservation organizations in educating and raising awareness on migratory bird species as it relates to the avian influenza. The project aims to create awareness on the importance of protecting migratory bird species through the conservation of their habitat and also lay to rest through education the negative perception that migratory birds are the main vector of spreading the high pathogenic form of avian influenza (H5N1).
