Bird Conservation Nepal (BCN) organised Bird Trade Awareness Campaign to meet the 2554th Buddha Jayanti (birth anniversary of Lord Buddha) on 27 May 2010 at Tribhuvan University/ Natural History Museum, Swoyambhu Kathmandu. Thousands of Buddhist pilgrims, students and young people participated in the festival. Our target was to aware Buddhist people especially who traditionally release the cage birds and attract bird traders to the Buddhist sites like Swoyambhu and Boudha. During the campaign, around 4000 leaflets with a message "Let's discourage illegal wild bird trade" were distributed to the pilgrims and other people.

Gautam Sapkota "Chari Dada" was able to attract lots of people mimicking the bird call and other activities for the children and visitor. We were able to collect some donation for "Charalai Char" campaign also.
