World Sparrow Day is a day designated to raise awareness of the house sparrow and other common birds to urban environments, and of threats to their populations, observed on 20 March
It is an international initiative by the Nature Forever Society of India in collaboration with the Eco-Sys Action Foundation (France) and numerous other national and international organisations across the world
The idea of marking a World Sparrow Day came up during an informal discussion at the Nature Forever Society's office.
The idea was to
earmark a day for the house sparrow to convey the message of
conservation of the house sparrow and other common birds and also mark a
day of celebration to appreciate the beauty of the common biodiversity
which is taken so much for granted.
The first World Sparrow Day was celebrated in 2010 in different parts of the world.
