BirdLife International

The partnership with BirdLife International aims to enhance the conservation of birds and their habitats globally, in the context of sustainable development. Through the partnership, we aim to improve knowledge and interest in birds as indicators of environmental health throughout Rio Tinto's operations, as well as improving habitats for birds at Rio Tinto sites, contributing to wider conservation initiatives and linking with local communities on conservation matters. Annual birdwatching events are held at Rio Tinto's operating sites.
