AUCA Commemorates International Snow Leopard Day As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting local efforts to find solutions for global problems, American University of Central Asia celebrates International Snow Leopard day today on October 23rd. This date marks the adoption of the Bishkek Declaration on the Conservation of the Snow Leopard in 2013, when all twelve of the world’s snow leopard habitat countries gathered in the capital of the Kyrgyz Republic to acknowledge the animal as a symbol of their natural and cultural heritage and affirm the need for collective action to conserve snow leopards and the ecosystems in which they live. Yesterday, on October 22nd, AUCA students and staff gathered in the center of Bishkek to present a Flashmob dedicated to raising awareness of the need for continued protection of these animals and of our ongoing commitment to environmental conservation projects in the Central Asia region. https://auca.kg/en/auca_news/1725/
