The trilateral Expert Group Breeding Birds has released an updated trend report on coastal breeding birds in the Wadden Sea.

The report provides important scientific insights and policy recommendations for protecting the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site at a time of accelerating environmental change.

On 26-27 January 2026, experts and stakeholders from across the Wadden Sea region held a trilateral workshop in Wilhelmshaven as part of the update process of the Breeding Bird Action.

The newly published methodological guidelines are the first step in ensuring adequate data availability for modelling climate impacts at the site level.

An international survey of migratory waterbirds is taking place this month along the East Atlantic Flyway, one of the world’s most important migration corridors.

A new comprehensive report has been published assessing capacity for waterbird monitoring along the African part of the East Atlantic Flyway and proposing a framework for strengthening and sustaining this capacity for the future.
