Costa Rican Ornithologist's Union

The Costa Rican Ornithologist’s Union is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organization composed of both professional ornithologists and dedicated amateurs, and was formed in early 2006. Its mission is to promote biodiversity conservation with an emphasis on birds and their habitats. The UNOR-CR coordinates the Important Bird Areas conservation initiative in Costa Rica and is also active in investigation, education, training and additional conservation efforts through its own programs and in collaboration with other institutions.
