SBBT is pleased to announce a new project in cooperation with Operation Wallacea, an organisation that links students and academics in ground-breaking research programmes around the world. In July and August this year, two SBBT expert associates will join the programme on the remote Natewa Peninsula in Vanua Levu, Fiji Islands, to survey the butterfly fauna there, supported by teams of Operation Wallacea students and scientists, and expert SBBT associates in Thailand and UK.
Swallowtails and birdwings are beautiful and graceful butterflies – who wouldn’t love to see them dancing in the sunlight or sipping nectar from wildflowers? But many species are under threat from agriculture, forestry and climate change. We have ideas, enthusiasm and a vision for the future. Will you help us to achieve our goals?
Financial contributions are welcome and will be treasured. We also need your ideas, new information, suggestions and encouragement!
We do four things to help swallowtails and birdwings: we raise financial resources; convene networks and partnerships; catalyse action, and provide scientific and technical support.
