With the support of the Countryside Conservation Funding Scheme, the ‘Forest Village: Mui Tsz Lam and Kop Tong Sustainable Village Programme’ in remote villages in the north-eastern New Territories is implemented by the Centre for Civil Society and Governance of the University of Hong Kong. Furthermore, OWLHK is honoured to work together with Dr. Michael Lau, a well-known ecologist in Hong Kong, to conduct a three-year ecological monitoring and survey for these two villages. In due course, the surveys shall provide baseline information including plants, birds, butterflies, dragonflies, amphibians and freshwater fishes for the organizer to formulate long-term sustainable rural conservation plan.
