Save migratory birds and the places they need’_
 The survival of migratory waterbirds is threatened by loss of habitat
at critical places along EAAF. The network of sites that birds have
relied upon for generations is getting ever smaller and more fragmented.
Every country in the flyway supports migratory waterbirds, and every
country needs to ensure that habitats are conserved and maintained to
provide that support.
 Many people remain unaware of the amazing migrations that are happening
all around them every year, and may not realize that protecting habitats
in their own countries will have far reaching benefits for this shared
natural wonder. The Secretariat encourages its partners and people
living in EAAF to join and celebrate WMBD together, and highlight the
need to protect habitats supporting migratory birds.
