In celebration of World Migratory Bird Day, the Libyan Society for Birds, in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, organized an environmental awareness event on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at Zawiyat al-Dahmani Park in Tripoli. This year’s celebration was held under the theme “Shared Spaces: Creating Cities and Communities Friendly to Birds.”

The event targeted youth and children, aiming to raise awareness about the importance of birds and their crucial role in maintaining ecological balance. Participants included members of the Third Scout Troop of Shatt Al-Hanshir, along with groups of young visitors to the park.

Among the day’s highlights were informative sessions introducing migratory birds and their environmental significance, as well as a plastic recycling workshop where participants created bird feeders and water stations from reused materials. The event also featured a hands-on telescope observation session, allowing children to experience birdwatching firsthand.

At the end of the event, the Libyan Society for Birds extended its sincere appreciation to the Ministry of Environment for its support and cooperation in ensuring the success of the celebration, and to the Third Scout Troop of Shatt Al-Hanshir for their active participation.
