NICHE is voornemens om in Pakistan het grotere publiek te betrekken bij het vergaren van kennis over vogels. We werken samen met Observation International (Observation.org) om dit te bereiken en in het bijzonder met Hans Verdaat, die vanuit het Global Team van OI de missie steunt.
M. Akram Awan en Marium Majeed Dar zijn de lokale vertegenwoordigers. De Nederlandse contactpersoon voor de Pakistanprojecten is Julian Overweg.
