Save the Sparrow Project
Overview
House Sparrows, once ubiquitous, have seen a sharp decline due to modern architecture and the loss of nesting sites. VNC’s project focuses on bringing these social birds back to our neighborhoods. We design and distribute scientifically-backed nest boxes and bird feeders, encouraging citizens to turn their balconies and gardens into sparrow sanctuaries.
Key Objectives
-
Distribute functional wooden nest boxes to urban households.
-
Conduct awareness workshops on bird-friendly gardening and pesticide reduction.
-
Monitor sparrow occupancy rates in various urban pockets.
Conservation Impact
Distributed over 5,000 nest boxes with an occupancy rate of 65%, successfully reviving sparrow colonies in Anand and Vidyanagar.
