A Trusted Leader 

����logo is a trusted nonpartisan leader in science-based conservation. We work with decisionmakers from domestic and international governments, Indigenous partners, and local communities to create solutions that last. With decades of experience in renewable energy, habitat restoration and land protection, working lands management, and environmental policymaking, and backed by the latest science and innovative tools, ����logo addresses the most urgent challenges of our time: biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, and climate change.

Through a powerful network of more than 500 community and campus chapters, 61 ����logo Centers and Sanctuaries, dozens of partners and1.9 million members and supporters, ����logo mobilizes tens of thousands of supporters who speak up for conservation across every U.S. state and territory and stretching across the hemisphere. Our “local everywhere” network, combined with deep policy expertise, drives bipartisan legislation, international and regional pledges, and hands-on conservation efforts that deliver real benefits for birds and communities. Guided by science, community impacts, and collaboration, ����logo is advancing a future where birds, people, and the planet can thrive together.

Habitats for Birds and People

Safeguarding the places birds and people depend on

Birds are vanishing at an alarming rate, and habitat loss is the leading cause. From boreal forests and grasslands to wetlands and coastal marshes, the ecosystems birds rely on are under increasing pressure from development, degradation, and climate change. ����logo is working to protect and restore 300 million acres of climate-resilient habitat across the Americas.

Guided by science and powered by partnerships, we drive policies that create connected landscapes where birds can thrive now and in a changing climate. Our efforts span from Alaska’s Arctic coast to the mangrove forests of Colombia and include bold, place-based initiatives like Everglades restoration, sagebrush protection, and urban canopy expansion. By conserving habitat, we not only protect birds but also enhance clean air, water, and climate resilience for communities.

Climate Solutions

Knowing that climate issues are bird issues

There is no path to stabilizing the climate without addressing biodiversity loss and dramatically changing how we produce electricity. ����logo believes that renewable energy and natural climate solutions have important roles to play in mitigating the impact of climate change—the single greatest threat to birds and other species.

����logo supports common-sense solutions to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing carbon storage, including by conserving and restoring forests, wetlands, and grasslands that provide important habitat for birds and serve as natural solutions for storing carbon, and investing in responsibly sited clean energy. We also are working with partners to bring nature-based solutions and bird-friendly practices to these landscapes to achieve conservation and sustainable-development impacts at a significant scale.

Conservation Financing

Investing in the Future of Birds, Nature, and Communities

Conservation is essential, but it requires sustained investment. ����logo is leading the charge to close the conservation funding gap by advocating for robust public funding and unlocking private capital for bird and habitat protection. From Capitol Hill to local legislatures in the U.S. and with international leaders across the hemisphere, we work to ensure that conservation programs have the resources they need to deliver impact.

Through our and strategic partnerships, we’re securing increased funding for national priorities like the Migratory Bird Joint Ventures, watershed restoration programs, and Tribal wildlife grants; which are pivotal for restoring critical habitat, strengthening watersheds, empowering Tribal stewardship, and advancing conservation across the hemisphere. We also support innovative state-level initiatives and development financing in Latin America and the Caribbean. By putting financial resources behind our values, we ensure long-term protection for birds and the places they call home.

Bird Conservation

Partnering to support sustained action

For more than a century, foundational bird protection policies have anchored conservation progress in the United States and across the Americas, helping species recover and safeguarding the ecosystems both birds and people depend on. As birds face accelerating threats from habitat loss, a shifting climate, and planned development that doesn’t consider environmental impacts. ����logo works to defend, strengthen, and modernize these laws. This ensures these bedrock protections remain durable, effective and responsive in a rapidly changing world.

Grounded in science and advanced through a nonpartisan, diplomatic approach, we partner with lawmakers, agencies, Indigenous groups, states, and local communities to defend long-standing protections while driving innovation in how conservation is implemented.

Our focus is on building a coordinated, hemispheric approach that supports strategic and sustained action across flyways; advancing practical solutions that reduce preventable threats and increase bird survival; and embedding climate resilience into habitat conservation at scale. From supporting community-led stewardship in cities and towns to promoting effective frameworks that align conservation efforts across borders, ����logo works to ensure bird protections remain robust, well-resources, and capable of meeting today’s conservation challenges across the Americas.

International Policy

Driving Global Action for Birds and the Planet

At ����logo, we believe that birds are powerful indicators of the health of our planet and our stewardship of nature. Our global conservation efforts span the Americas and beyond, reaching from boreal Canada to the tropical forests of Latin America and the Caribbean. By employing a hemispheric mindset, we protect migratory pathways, restore vital habitats, and tackle the dual crises of biodiversity loss and climate change.

We connect partners, influence policy, and catalyze on-the-ground action across continents. From safeguarding high-priority sites for thousands of migratory and endemic birds, to advancing nature-based climate solutions and engaging local communities, our international work reflects one truth: what’s good for birds is good for the planet. With science guiding our hemispheric approach, we’re building a future where nature and people thrive together.
