Further information about the project

The following websites and articles have published stories about the in-situ conservation work in Nepal.

BBC News South Asia, Bird Conservation Nepal projects, UNDP Success Stories, BirdLife International news, Reuters press news, New Scientist Environment

Support for this project in Nepal has come from the United Nations Development Programme, the UK Government Darwin Initiative and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds

In addition the local community has received funding from the UNDP-GEF Small Grants programme to help establish a vulture watching hide, education and community centre to further promote vulture conservation. Increasing numbers of visitors are now visiting the site, providing further incentive to protect these vultures.
