As part of an ongoing conservation initiative for the Cheer Pheasant, Bird Conservation Nepal (BCN) successfully conducted two community awareness programs in Barekot IBA, Jajarkot District, on 16 and 17 May 2026. The programs were held at Shree Sita Secondary School, Karkijiula and Shree Bhagwati Aadharbhut Vidhyalaya, Laikham, engaging a total of 59 participants.

The awareness began with an introduction to the Cheer Pheasant, covering its global and national conservation status, worldwide distribution, population trends, habitat requirements, breeding behavior, major threats and practical actions that local communities can take to support its conservation.

Participants included Gaura Bhotegareli Community Forest User Groups (CFUGs), Dhoren CFUGs, Laliguras CFUGs, Airenipakha CFUGs, Chandra Surya Youth Club, the Vice-Principal of Shree Sita Secondary School and teachers from Shree Bhagwati Aadharbhut Vidhyalaya. These interactive sessions highlighted the vital role of local communities in safeguarding the Cheer Pheasant and its habitat, strengthening collective commitment toward the species conservation.

On the occasion of World Environment Day 2026, Bird Conservation Nepal (BCN) organized a Nature Education Program for the students of Kaasthamandap Vidhyalaya at Ranibari Community Forest, Kathmandu. The program engaged 80 students in a range of interactive, nature-based activities, including bird and butterfly watching, plant identification, and forest mapping. Following the field session, the students shared their observations and experiences at the Bird and Biodiversity Conservation Learning Center, reflecting on what they had learned through direct interaction with nature. The program provided a unique opportunity for students to explore the natural environment amidst the busy urban landscape, helping them better understand the ecosystems beyond what is taught in classrooms.

In line with this year's World Environment Day theme, "๐‘ฐ๐’๐’”๐’‘๐’Š๐’“๐’†๐’… ๐’ƒ๐’š ๐‘ต๐’‚๐’•๐’–๐’“๐’†, ๐‘ญ๐’๐’“ ๐‘ช๐’๐’Š๐’Ž๐’‚๐’•๐’†, ๐‘ญ๐’๐’“ ๐‘ถ๐’–๐’“ ๐‘ญ๐’–๐’•๐’–๐’“๐’†," the initiative encouraged students to develop a deeper appreciation for biodiversity and the importance of environmental conservation.

Local governments in Dang-Deukhuri have formally endorsed several of their wards as important bird habitats, marking a significant step toward strengthening conservation and the protection of bird species in western Nepal. The endorsement letters were issued by Rajpur Rural Municipality, Gadhawa Rural Municipality, Rapti Rural Municipality and Lamahi Municipality in support of conserving ecologically significant wetlands, lakes, river systems and associated habitats that provide critical refuge for both resident and migratory bird species.
