Educational Activity & Press release about the event

During the bird migration period, number of birds fly through the wide dry landscape. There are very few places where birds can land and rest at them during their harsh and long journeys. Protecting those important places is essential for conservation of migratory birds. Raising awareness and knowledge of local people, especially children, is very important in the country.

SPEA is an ONG that develops several conservation projects aiming to preserve bird species and their habitat in Potugal. In the Azores arquipelago a LIFE project was developed to preserve the marine birds called "Safe Islands for Seabirds"that ended last year.

The event, which is supported by the migratory Soaring bird Project, will take two days: The first day is bird watching at the Sunot Bird Protected Area, which lies in the White Nile in the Khartoum State. The bird watching will be carried out early in the morning around 7:00 am. Stake holders will be informed about the types of migratory birds, the role they play in maintaining ecosystems and controlling pest, their recreational and economical values. Emphasis will be placed on the Migratory Soaring Birds (MSB) contests will be arranged among the stakeholders to identify the MSB.

This local informative event in the Ionain islands of Corfu and Paxoi will present the magical journey of migration and the threats migratory birds face!

We aim to engage the local hunting community in a live discussion regarding the contentious issue of spring killing in Greece and to empower the individuals that wish to publicly defend migratory birds against poachers.
This event is part of the LIFE Information and Communication Project "Safe haven for Wild Birds", which runs a 3-year campaign against illegal killing on the Mediterranean.
