SUMMARY:Making of Peoples Biodiversity Register Second Edition with community support
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the official launch of the People’s Biodiversity Register (PBR) Second Edition\, a vital community-driven effort to document and preserve local biodiversity. This edition has been developed with active participation from the community\, and it highlights the rich biodiversity of the region\, fostering greater awareness and conservation. \nThe event will include presentations\, discussions\, and reflections on the significance of PBR in safeguarding local ecosystems\, alongside an introduction to future biodiversity conservation initiatives.
