People's Biodiversity Register (PBR)

The People's Biodiversity Register (PBR) is an official document that records and preserves information about the biological resources of a particular area. It includes information about various living organisms found in the area, such as plants, animals, birds, fish, microorganisms, and other forms of biodiversity. Traditional knowledge of local communities and information related to the sustainable use of natural resources are also documented in the register. It is an important tool for biodiversity conservation and sustainable management of natural resources. The PBR helps in understanding the current status of natural resources in an area and in planning environmental conservation activities at the local level. It also supports activities aimed at preventing the loss of biological resources and ensuring their long-term conservation. As part of the implementation of the Biological Diversity Act, local self-government institutions are responsible for preparing and maintaining the People's Biodiversity Register. The register plays a crucial role in preserving the ecological heritage and natural wealth of an area for future generations. It is a valuable document for developing environmental responsibility, promoting biodiversity conservation, and ensuring the sustainable use of biological resources.
