FROM BIRDLIFE INTERNATIONAL

View email in browser Hi John, Some of the most important work we do is also the hardest to see. It happens in meeting rooms with diplomatic conversations, shared evidence, and years of persistence. For birds that see no borders as they cross continents and oceans, this matters because no single country can protect them alone. It is thanks to supporters like you, that I can write to say migratory birds are now better protected than they were even just months ago. In March 2026, governments from around the world met in Brazil for CMS COP15, a UN global summit focused entirely on migratory species. With strong leadership and expertise from my colleagues and our Partners, the meeting delivered major, concrete breakthroughs – securing protections for birds like the Snowy Owl, Steppe Eagle, Flesh-footed Shearwater, and the Antipodean Albatross. Some of the inspiring people behind these breakthroughs are photographed above, but positive change doesn’t happen overnight. They are the result of years of collaboration, and only possible because of our global community of supporters. The challenge is enormous, but we can meet it by taking conservation action on a global scale, thanks to your support.
