ABOUT SOF
The Salem Ornithological Foundation (SOF) is a youth-led, non-profit organization registered (U85300TZ2020NPL034938) under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013. Our goal is to contribute to the knowledge and conservation of birdlife, the environment, biodiversity, and climate change through education, research, and innovative solutions. We work in different habitats ranging from wetlands, forests, scrub jungles, farmlands, and the hill ranges of the Eastern Ghats. We also take focused measures to encourage the participation and leadership of women in conservation initiatives. In addition to promoting bird and nature conservation, our work also aspires to enhance and protect the livelihood options for the local, rural, and tribal communities. We actively work in liaison with multiple government departments and local communities to lawfully safeguard as many wilderness habitats in Salem as possible. All our activities align with the UNSDGs and the UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration.
