Workshop in Lao PDR to Learn and Share Insights on Waterbird Monitoring Techniques

20 February 2025 -

Last month, a workshop in Lao PDR brought together national and local government officials, community leaders, experts, and researchers to learn and share insights on waterbird monitoring techniques, wetland habitat management, bird survey findings, and the Flyway Site Network nomination process.

One of the highlights was a visit to Nong Khamsean village, where community leaders proudly showcased their vibrant wetland and highlighted the important role these wetland habitats play for both local communities and migratory waterbirds.

This activity is a part of the Improving Biodiversity Conservation of Wetlands and Migratory Waterbirds in the ASEAN Region – Phase II supported by the Government of Japan through the Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF).
