Vulture Network Portal:
An Assam-based foundation developed the Vulture Network portal.
- Vulture Network Portal is a cloud-based portal designed to serve as a comprehensive knowledge and awareness platform on vultures of India.
- It is first of its kind in India – to build a network of individuals engaged in saving the large scavenger birds.
- It was started by We Foundation India supported by dedicated partnerssuch as the Assam Bird Monitoring Network and other organisations.
- It was developed to compile scientific information, spread awareness, and provide freely downloadable outreach materials for anyone interested in conducting awareness campaigns.
- It focuses on the threats of carcass poisoning, harmful veterinary drugs such as diclofenac, and negative social perceptions, all of which continue to drive vulture population decline.
- It is disseminating information in local languages, beginning with Assamese.
