Biodiversity Conservation and Maintenance of Peoples Biodiversity Registers

Seba Jagat actively supports biodiversity conservation through community-based initiatives aimed at documenting and protecting local flora and fauna. One of the key strategies is the maintenance of Peoples Biodiversity Registers (PBRs), which serve as an important tool for documenting and preserving the rich biodiversity that exists within communities. These registers are developed in partnership with local communities, and they capture detailed information about species of plants, animals, and medicinal plants that are critical for both ecological balance and community health. Seba Jagat facilitates community-led workshops to train local stakeholders, particularly women and youth, on how to identify, document, and monitor local biodiversity. By involving the community in PBRs, Seba Jagat empowers local people to take ownership of their natural heritage and encourages the sustainable use of resources. The initiative not only supports conservation efforts but also promotes the sustainable harvesting of biodiversity, helping to maintain ecological balance and enhance local livelihoods.
