Local Action
BirdWatch Zambia (BWZ) is a membership-based environmental NGO dedicated to the conservation of Zambia’s birds and their habitats. Established in 1969, the organisation works to protect Important Bird Areas, support community conservation groups, promote environmental education, and strengthen national biodiversity knowledge. As the official BirdLife International partner in Zambia, BWZ plays a key role in safeguarding the country’s rich birdlife and advocating for nature conservation across the nation.
BirdLife International
Our long-standing partnership with BirdLife International anchors our conservation work within a trusted global network. As the world’s largest nature conservation partnership, BirdLife brings decades of research, policy expertise, and community-driven conservation models.
Through this collaboration, BirdWatch Zambia contributes to international monitoring programmes, protects Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBAs), and advances strategies that safeguard threatened species across the region.
Together, we champion a shared vision: a Zambia where birds, wildlife, and people thrive in harmony.
Why Partnerships Matter
Strong conservation work thrives on collaboration. At BirdWatch Zambia, partnerships fuel every protected habitat, every species safeguarded, and every community we reach.
We value organisations that share our vision for a Zambia where birds and ecosystems flourish. Together, we strengthen research, expand community engagement, and connect our efforts to global conservation.
As we grow, we welcome new partners—from institutions and foundations to corporate supporters and conservation groups. Your collaboration can help protect the landscapes that sustain Zambia’s birds and the communities who depend on them.
