Migratory Connectivity Of Buff-Breasted Sandpipers - Pp This project carries out conservation activities to protect Buff-breasted Sandpipers in Southern South America.
Providing Habitats for NMBs of Grasslands of Colombian Orinoco The Colombian Orinoco basin harbors one of the highest diversity of fish and wildlife in the world. This region is an important wintering and stopover area for at least 50 Neotropical migratory bird species, including 15 species that can co-exist and thrive with bird friendly agricultural and traditional ranching practices. The Orinoco also hosts 2 percent of hemispheric populations of Solitary Sandpipers. This project will enhance 4,942 ha of natural grasslands, and will recommend bird-friendly management practices in ricefields, which will be certified as bird-friendly rice production lands. This work will benefit species such as the American Swallow-tailed Kite, Upland Sandpiper, Yellow-billed Cuckoo and Dickcissel.
Mitigating Human-Jaguar Conflict, Facilitating Stakeholder Cooperation and Capacity, and Increasing Sustainable Use of Native Habitat in the Gran Chaco 1)EXPANDING OUR PARTICIPATORY NETWORK OF PRIVATE LANDOWNERS
ADVANCING AFSI THROUGH NATIONAL PLANS & Recent data suggest that many shorebird species within the West Atlantic Flyway are declining dramatically, with populations of several species having decreased between 50 and 90 percent since 1990. Atlantic Flyway shorebirds are exposed to a diverse set of human-induced threats across their ranges and throughout their lifecycles. A collaborative flyway conservation approach is needed to address this suite of threats. The Atlantic Flyway Shorebird Initiative (AFSI) business plan addresses this by identifying the full suite of strategies and actions needed to conserve 15 Atlantic Flyway shorebird species. To facilitate the implementation of the AFSI Business Plan, Manomet, in collaboration with Argentine and Brazilian government agencies, SAVE Brasil and the Argentine WHSRN Council, will develop a second phase of the Brazilian Shorebird Conservation Plan (2018-2023), and develop the first ever Argentine Shorebird Conservation Plan (2018-2023), both within the framework of AFSI. An Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation process will assess and prioritize threats, and identify and prioritize strategies and actions. The project will build capacity to address human disturbance of shorebird at key sites in Argentina and Brazil, and build local capacity for long-term monitoring of the effectiveness of conservation actions at three Brazilian National Parks.
Mitigating Human-Jaguar Conflict, Facilitating Stakeholder Cooperation and Capacity, and Increasing Sustainable Use of Native Habitat in the Gran Chaco Expanding our participatory network of private landowners and impact through the installation of new non-lethal, solar-powered electric conflict deterrent fences; inventories and mapping of current and prospective participatory stakeholder properties to incentivize the establishment of legal private reserves and evaluate potential to restore habitat; hosting the first series of human-jaguar conflict mitigation workshops in cooperation with regional livestock associations and in the most affected rural areas engaging local youth and communities through a series of presentations and discussions at rural schools, and hosting and running the first consumer focus groups to develop and refine market strategies for a sustainable supply chain.

This will be accomplished by building and consolidating local support for conservation action; expanding the area and degree of protection of urban natural reserves; and by conducting awareness campaigns using innovative methodologies such as social marketing. The project also aims to strengthen collaboration among partners, local community and sites managers of WHSRN sites between Argentina and Chile...Species that will benefit include: surfbird, ruddy turnstone, sanderling, red knot, white-rumped sandpiper, Hudsonian godwit, whimbrel, Bairds sandpiper, American oystercatcher, greater yellowlegs, and American golden plover...
Towards sustainability of Neotropical grassland migrant conservation III Project objectives include: ensure the maintenance of at least 370,500 acres of natural grassland habitats through the certification of bird friendly beef production; expand the constituency of producers adopting best management practices (BMPs); support government-backed incentives for implementing BMPs; and build support for conservation and sustainable use of the Southern Cone grasslands.
Expanding Golden-winged Warbler Cons. in the El Jaguar Volcan Yali Corridor PP Partners will expand reforestation and habitat protection efforts within the El Jaguar Volcan Yali Biological Corridor to protect, connect and increase the size of remaining forest fragments and provide shade trees for sun coffee plantations used as wintering ground habitat for the Golden-winged Warbler. In addition to the Golden-winged Warbler, this project will benefit nearly 50 nearctic-neotropical migratory bird species such as Golden cheeked Warbler, Blue-winged Warbler, Wood Thrush and Painted Bunting.
CONSERVATION OF PINE-OAK FORESTS AS KEY The Alliance for the Conservation of Mesoamerican Pine-Oak Forests, involving six countries (US-Texas, Mexico-Chiapas, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and El Salvador) has collaborated since 2003, to protect and manage the winter habitat of the endangered species Golden-cheeked Warbler (GCWA). In the past ten years the alliance based its conservation actions on a conservation plan developed in 2008. This year, 2017, an updated conservation plan was developed for the alliance, however, the conceptual model is not yet complete. Alliance partners made progress defining conservation goals, analyzing threats and contributing factors, as well as defining strategies and some actions linked to the strategies. The goal of this project is to complete the Mesoamerican conceptual model and the goal of this plan is the conservation of the Mesoamerican Pine-Oak Forests and the Golden-cheeked Warbler, which will directly benefit several regional populations of Neotropical migratory birds. This represents a 'model' that other regions inside this broad Western Forest region of North and Central American can replicate, that prioritizes conservation actions in a more realistic and pragmatic geographic area, where site conservation actions can be implemented immediately, with measurable results.

ADVANCING SHOREBIRD CONSERVATION IN THE Until recently, the coasts of South America were thought to provide the most important non-breeding habitats for migratory shorebirds, but recent tracking data shows that birds also migrate along interior river systems. This project seeks to improve understanding of migration in the Llanos savannas of Colombia and Venezuela and the beaches and sandbanks of Amazonian rivers in northern in Peru and Colombia. The objectives are to: 1) advance the conceptual model for shorebird conservation in the Midcontinental Flyway, with a focus on identifying priority strategies and actions in the interior of northern South America; 2) engage key South American stakeholders to inform the modeling and garner support for strategy implementation; 3) improve understanding of stopover sites and critical habitats in northern South America for Buff-breasted Sandpiper; and 4) strengthen and empower conservation actions at key stopover sites for Buff-breasted Sandpiper. These actions will further the development of a Midcontinental Shorebird Flyway Strategy.
PARTNERSHIP FOR THE CONSERVATION OF CENTRAL AMERICA'S 5 GREAT FORESTS This project builds upon previous work conducted under a five-year cooperative agreement that established a broad alliance and.five-pillar strategy to conserve Central Americas Five Great Forests. The purpose of this project is to implement three projects in.three different countries, representing complementary, discrete, and tangible examples of the Five Great Forests strategy in action.at the local level. Central Americas wildlife and wild places, as well as the physical, cultural, and food and water security of.Indigenous peoples and local communities, are at risk from environmental degradation, climate change, and the expansion of.illegal cattle ranching. The project is intended to conserve three areas within the Five Great Forests, including viable populations.of wide-ranging species, such as the jaguar, Bairds tapir, white-lipped peccary, macaw, and critically endangered Central.American river turtle, as well as support the forest communities that rely on them. Activities include: (1) state-of-the-art forest.protection in the Maya Forest Corridor of Belize; 2) restoration of degraded cattle landscapes to generate economic and environmental benefits in Carmelita Community Forest Concession, Maya Biosphere Reserve, Guatemala; and 3) indigenous-led.forest protection and forest-based local economies in Bosawas Biosphere Reserve, Nicaragua.

Wildlife Without Borders-Western Hemisphere Project activities will build the foundation for monitoring and regulating wildlife harvest by 1) identifying and quantifying existing markets that sell wild meat in the region, 2) establishing a wildlife and wildlife harvest monitoring program to evaluate sustainability of traditional hunting practices, 3) identifying current issues with existing regulations and implementation for wildlife harvest and trade across the region, and 4) raising awareness on national and international regulations concerning wildlife harvest and trade.
BIRD CONSERVATION BUSINESS PLAN Environment and Climate Change Canada will convene non-U.S. partners and stakeholders to produce a Bird Conservation Business Plan (BCBP) for Central and South American Highlands and Mexico and Central America's Gulf-Caribbean Slopes. These geographies are linked by the migratory birds that rely on them, the threats they face, and the conservation partners working within them. Partners will follow the approach of the Atlantic Flyway Shorebird Initiative and the Pacific Americas Shorebird Conservation Strategy, using Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation to prioritize conservation actions and to build a conceptual model of change. The result will be a BCBP for Cerulean Warbler, Golden-winged Warbler, and 9 additional priority Neotropical migrants, and the habitats that sustain them during the non-breeding season. The Plan will include Latin American conservation targets, identified by Latin American partners, to ensure international 'buy-in' and implementation. The Plan will provide the strategic framework needed to direct human and financial resources to address high priority threats and knowledge gaps and, will provide measurable benchmarks by which conservation practitioners, funders and government agencies can evaluate progress. Target outcomes will include measurable biological improvements in population trends for focal species, measurable threat reductions, and new information to direct conservation efforts.
SCALING UP CONSERVATION ACROSS PATAGONIA: RESOLVING CONFLICTS BETWEEN WILDLIFE AND PEOPLE The purpose of this project is to diminish the persecution of guanacos connected to the competition with sheep and goats for pastures, and the retaliatory killing of pumas, culpeos, Andean cats, and Andean condors due to the real or perceived threats they pose to livestock. Project activities will create connectivity between areas with large, ecologically healthy populations of guanacos on a network of private lands and protected areas throughout Patagonia by (i) decreasing the impacts of livestock through adoption of Wildlife FriendlyTM standards that provide producers with better financial return from fewer, better-managed sheep and goats; (ii) increasing tolerance of ranchers through sustainable use of guanaco wool obtained by live-shearing, carried out in a manner that promotes conservation of Patagonian wildlife and provides fair prices to producers who are living with these large populations; and (iii) improving the conservation of carnivores and condors on private lands through the evaluation, promotion, and expansion of more effective, non-lethal methods to control predation of livestock
Cons and Rest Broadleaf Forest in Brak Valley, Aux Cornichons IBA - PP Building on nearly two years of pilot experience in the broadleaf forest remnants in eastern Haitis Brak Valley, this project will provide incentives to protect reforested and intact forest areas from clearing, grazing and agriculture. It will also create incentives and teach local farmers to grow high-quality nursery stock using native tree species, which local landholders will use to reforest their own parcels. This project aims to restore and increase critical broadleaf forest habitat that supports Bicknells thrush and other neotropical migrant birds, as well as the rich endemic biodiversity of La Visite National Park...
