Youth for Migratory Birds: A Forum on Migratory Birds Protection and Wetland Conservation

With the changing climate and increasing temperature of our planet, our way of life has been compromised. Biodiversity loss is increasing at an alarming rate, almost 150 species are becoming extinct each day. Migratory birds provide ecosystem benefits that include pest control, pollination of plants, and serve as food sources for other wildlife. It is our collective duty to protect these beautiful creatures and make sure that the next generation can also witness these species. This event aims to increase the awareness of the youth on the importance of migratory birds and wetlands and how they can help protect them. Also, it will encourage the participants to use social media and make digital campaigns for information and education awareness materials for the protection of migratory birds and wetland conservation. And be able to understand the importance of the Philippine wetlands, the Ramsar Convention, and the potential Flyway Network Site. This event aims to encourage the youth to be the ambassadors to promote migratory birds protection and conservation of Philippines wetlands.
