Birdlife Conservation Project
The Committee carried out & published a full inventory of Avifauna of Jordan, established birdwatch stations and published a reference on the birds of Jordan in Arabic, which is used by students and bird lovers until now. Work accomplished under this project later qualified Jordan to host Birdlife International/ Middle East Regional Office.

For the first time a reference in Arabic on the birds of Jordan was made available to specialists and lay people providing them with a new insight to loacl and global avifaunal resources.
