Our Mission is to conserve native birds and their habitats.

To help develop a reserve network, associates will identify sites, provide technical and entrepreneurship support to partners to maintain a reserve, and assist them in generating sustainable revenue for long-term management and monitoring. Our goal is to conserve endangered bird species in Kumaon, to begin with, and the Hindu Kush Himalaya, and for each reserve to attain operational excellence and long-term financial sustainability through sustainable ventures including aquaculture and horticulture projects run by youth.

The most critical threat facing threatened birds is the destruction and fragmentation of habitat. The loss of forests, plains and other natural systems to agriculture and urban developments, the draining of wetlands, and logging reduce potential habitat for many species.

Sustainable aquaculture could be the key to feeding our growing population.

This must be done in a way that is sustainable. Specifically, by looking at various closed-system technologies, including recirculating tanks, raceways, flow-through systems, and inland ponds.
