Regional offices

The regional office in the Valais was founded in 2000 with the aim of promoting bird conservation issues in cooperation with partners. The focus is on the ecological enhancement of cultivated land habitats (vineyards, fruit plantations, arable land in Chablais, grassland habitats in Goms) and the specific promotion of selected species (nightjar, scops owl, rock nesting bird, lapwing, whinchat, building nesting bird and others).
