The National Audubon Society protects birds and the places they need today and tomorrow. Through the Americas, the organization uses science, advocacy, education, and on-the-ground conservation to create a world in which people and wildlife thrive. The Audubon network includes 23 state programs, 43 Audubon centers and sanctuaries, nearly 500 local chapters, and more than 200 international partners in more than 12 countries in the continent, all working together for a common goal.
Audubon's strategies in Latin America and the Caribbean are designed to deliver results at an unprecedented scale and pace, by incorporating bird conservation into national and local development agendas and involving a range of NGO partners, business interests, policymakers, and community leaders. Its four strategies are:
Strategy 1: Subnational and national protected areas
- Audubon will work with partners to establish more than 80 new protected areas covering 2 million hectares and improve management of an additional 2 million hectares.
Strategy 2: Regenerative agriculture
- Audubon and partners will work with landowners to create healthier habitats for priority birds and other wildlife on 5 million hectares of agricultural lands in once-forested landscapes.
Strategy 3: Coastal resilience
- Audubon and partners aim ot restore or improve the management of 1 million hectares of coastal bird habitat.
Strategy 4: Building a constituency for birds
- Audubon and its partners will build public commitment to bird conservation by engaging one million people across the hemisphere.
These strategies already have important regional projects shared with other partners at the hemispheric level such as Conserva Aves, the Americas Flyways Initiative and the Mangroves Alliance. These strategies contribute directly to the biodiversity and climate change agendas with concrete conservation and restoration outcomes and capacity building to local partners.
