Central Asian Flyway Digital Hub
The Central Asian Conservation Network (CACN) is a regional platform for NGOs, experts, and conservation practitioners dedicated to enhancing transboundary conservation across Central Asia and the Central Asian Flyway (CAF). Its goal is to create synergies and catalyze action on the ground to maximize conservation outcomes at the regional level. We facilitate information-sharing, capacity development, and transboundary programs with a focus on the conservation of migratory birds and their habitats.

KEY SITES

Migratory birds depend on a limited number of ecologically critical sites to complete their annual life cycle. Degradation or loss of any one of these sites can have flyway-scale consequences. A connected network of key sites is essential to maintain ecological connectivity, support species recovery, and ensure long-term resilience of migratory bird populations in the CAF.

CACN Working Groups

The Central Asian Conservation Network (CACN) Working Groups provide the technical, scientific, and collaborative backbone for conserving migratory birds along the Central Asian Flyway. Each Working Group brings together experts, practitioners, and institutions to address priority species, habitats, and cross-cutting conservation challenges, strengthening cooperation, knowledge exchange, and coordinated action across countries and sectors.

BIRD COLLISION REPORTING PORTAL

The Central Asian Flyway Bird Collision Reporting Portal is a regional platform that allows birdwatchers, researchers, field staff, infrastructure managers, and the public to report bird collisions in a simple, transparent, and scientifically useful way.
