Spring Alive is an international project that aims to encourage children’s interest in nature and the conservation of migratory birds. The project aspires to get children to take action for birds and other wildlife as well as to participate in events organised by BirdLife Partners.

Spring Alive brings together children, their teachers and families and by posting their first sightings of easily-recognised migratory bird species, specifically Barn Swallow, White Stork, Common Cuckoo, Common Swift, Sand Martin and European Bee-eater on the www.springalive.net website, children from Europe, Central Asia and Africa create real-time maps of the incredible journeys these birds take each year.

Spring Alive is organised by OTOP, the BirdLife Partner in Poland, on behalf of the BirdLife Partnership. Wildlife groups, teachers and others who would like to become more involved in Spring Alive should contact the International Manager, Karolina Kalinowska, at Karolina.Kalinowska@otop.org.pl
