“The focus is on investigating the factors relevant to the recolonisation of former habitats and identifying potential threats in the wintering areas of the Eastern Imperial Eagle.”
The Ulyanovsk region, located along the middle Volga River, is an important breeding and distribution area for the endangered Eastern Imperial Eagle. Over the past 10 years, NABU has achieved significant research and conservation successes for the species in the Ulyanovsk region and has established strong relationships with all relevant stakeholders in Russia. In Bulgaria and the Czech Republic, the respective BirdLife partner organisations are actively involved in Eastern Imperial Eagle conservation. The exchange of knowledge and experience among international experts can make an important contribution to the effective conservation of this iconic species.
With the support of the VGP Foundation, this new project will facilitate knowledge exchange and cooperation among international experts from different regions, helping to strengthen conservation efforts across the species’ entire range.
