In November, the Taiwan Wild Bird Federation hosted the "Major Topics in International Bird Conservation" webinar series. It was created in coordination with the Taiwan Endemic Species Research Institute and with the support of the Forestry Bureau. These sessions were organized to build on the publication of Taiwan's first national bird report, the State of Taiwan's Birds 2020, and discuss its content with wider audiences. Four of the six webinars featured international scholars and experts from a range of fields. Participants were able to fully engage with the speakers about their topics as they were held in English with simultaneous Mandarin translation.
In today's world, almost everything happens on the internet, buying clothes, reading the news, even dating. But what about information on wildlife and conservation-related topics? In today's ever-connected world it is critical to be able to share information and raise awareness about your brand, especially online. Wildlife conservation is no different. That's why the TWBF has been working hard to maintain a strong presence on various social media platforms.
The TWBF was invited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to discuss with other NGOs thier international work and how birds truly do connect our world!
On July 25, 2020, the Lienchang (Matsu) County government, with the support of the Ocean Affairs Council, held the 2020 Tern Conservation and Sustainable Ecology Conference in Nangan, Matsu, Taiwan. Organized by the Wild Bird Society of Taipei, it brought together government, academia, civil society, and the business community to look at the current conservation status of seabirds in Taiwan, especially the Chinese crested tern. It also explored local and international examples of sustainable ecotourism and environmental education.
