The 26th Taipei International Birdwatching Fair 2024, or the Taipei International Bird Expo 2024, will occur on October 19th and 20th at Guandu Nature Park. The theme for this year’s Fair is ‘Neighbirdhood’.
The organizers created this concept by combining the terms ‘neighbourhood’ and ‘bird’. The goal of the fair is to help people recognize the close connection between humans and the rich diversity of local birdlife. Through this initiative, the Organizers aim to promote conservation work and the sustainable development of natural resources.
