In the light of Peter Garret's recent announcement we are keen to compare the single species approach with holistic ecosystem management in conservation of birds. We intend to focus on the conservation activities of Birds Australia members & groups and how Important Bird Areas can enhance Birds Australia's performance in this field.
Topics for papers can embrace monitoring as a conservation tool, accounts of conservation projects, captive breeding, translocation of birds to vacant habitat, habitat restoration, data collection & publication and how to achieve conservation action by influencing agencies and landholders.
