Our Association focuses mainly on environmental education and awareness campaigns for wild birds’ conservation.

Educational and Awareness Campaigns
-
The best method of awareness about the important role that birds have in their ecosystems is by learning about them and how they
interact in the environment is essential for all of us. Due to this, our Association develops different educational activities
in order to reach all the population. We develop formal speeches and casual talks, to schools, universities, and public in general
with the goal of sharing the message of respect and conservation to the birds, to be able to maintain healthy and balanced ecosystems.
-
Each talk has been carried out under a different learning strategy. Among the strategies that the Association uses we have for example,
falconry, where the public comes in direct contact with a bird and its impressive beauty; tree planting activities, where interdependence
of birds with their ecosystems is linked; cleaning campaigns, where the negative impact generated on ecosystems and birds is demonstrated;
drawing and painting, where children through art create a bond with birds and learn about them.

Environmental Clean Up Activities
-
These campaigns have had as main objective to sensitize the population about the negative impact that the garbage generates
in the environment. The activity of garbage collection as a group, generates a sense of responsibility with the environment,
and shows the volunteers that together we can make good changes. At the same time, it allows us to identify the amount of
waste collected, and carry out an introspection exercise about what we can do better as a society and what changes could
we achieve by doing it. At the end of each campaign, every volunteer recognizes the shocking amount of garbage that we generate,
and for which we are responsible. People want to generate actions for change after this experience.

If you are interested in generating a cleaning campaign with your school, college or institution, contact us. We will be happy
to support you in the organization on a voluntary basis.
