About us

Bird Conservation Nepal (BCN) is the largest and oldest civil society organisation dedicated to the interests of ornithologists, bird watchers and conservationists in Nepal. It seeks to promote interest in birds amongst the general public; encourage research on bird biology and ecology; identify major threats to birds and act to conserve bird and their habitats. It also provides the most authentic information on birds and their habitats across Nepal.

BCN is a membership based organisation supported by the Founder President, patrons, life members and several ordinary members. The major strength of BCN is its varied membership, which includes students, teachers, professionals, bird enthusiasts, conservationists and the general public.

BCN recognises the value of birds and promotes the participation of people as future stewards to attain long-term conservation goals. We do this through a variety of projects. If you would like to learn about what we are doing please check other sub headings in this website.

BCN presently has core staff and project staff but relies on the invaluable work of volunteers and supporters. We highly appreciate and welcome any support for the cause of bird conservation in Nepal. For further information, please contact us
