Training

We support bird watching organisations by facilitating capacity development programmes and providing technical assistance.

The capacity development programme aims to build up capacity of bird watching organisations in a variety of areas such as bird surveys, site conservation activities, fundraising, education, as well as organisational management. It is anticipated that workshops would be organised twice a year, each lasting a couple of days and involving both classroom training and practical sessions.

Detail programmes are being developed and will be announced closer to the time. Parties interested in collaborating with us in running the training programme are welcome to contact us at info@chinabirdnet.org
