- The Nature Conservation Foundation (NCF), in collaboration with the National Biodiversity Authority (NBA), has launched the Campus Biodiversity Register (CBR) initiative to document biodiversity on college and university campuses.
- The National Biodiversity Authority (NBA) is a statutory body that regulates, advises, and promotes the conservation and sustainable use of biological resources.
- The Campus Biodiversity Register (CBR) is inspired by the People's Biodiversity Register (PBR), which documents biodiversity and traditional knowledge at the village, town, and city levels.
- Under the initiative, students, faculty, and staff will document biodiversity through surveys, campus walks, and regular observations.
- The initiative uses citizen science platforms such as iNaturalist, eBird, and Season Watch to record biodiversity data.
- The Campus Biodiversity Register (CBR) aims to strengthen biodiversity conservation, improve ecosystem management, and enhance scientific awareness among students.
