Indian Colleges Launch Initiative to Document Campus Biodiversity
Colleges and universities across India are collaborating to create Campus Biodiversity Registers (CBRs) to document and celebrate the diverse flora and fauna on their campuses. Led by the Nature Conservation Foundation and the National Biodiversity Authority, this year-long initiative encourages participants to record observations using platforms like iNaturalist, eBird, and SeasonWatch. The project aims to enhance understanding and conservation of campus ecosystems, which serve as important urban green spaces and biodiversity hotspots.
