HawkWatch International

Description

We at HawkWatch International envision our work contributing to a greater public awareness of humanity's place in nature and of its responsibility to the rest of life. We envision a public that understands and appreciates the importance of healthy, biologically diverse ecosystems. We strive to achieve this by focusing on raptors as indicators of ecoystem health, by scientifically monitoring long-term trends in their populations and by working to promote conservation actions based on sound science. Our aim is to advance the stewardship of nature by engaging the public in citizen-science projects and education programs. We hope to promote an ethic of ecological sustainability and conservation that spans generations.
