On Thursday March 10, 2022, the Taiwan Wild Bird Federation, Taiwan Endemic Species Research Institute, Czech Society for Ornithology and related individuals met virtually for the first time to discuss birds, conservation issues, and citizen science in Czechia and Taiwan. The event was organized by the TWBF with support from the CSO and TESRI. A total of 46 people attended.
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.
