Our Mission

Oceania Seabirds will bring the attention of the international and Oceania community to the importance of seabirds within the world’s largest body of water, the Pacific Ocean | the Great Ocean | Coxë (New Caledonia) | Moanauiākea (Hawai’i) | Te Moana Nui a Kiwa (Aotearoa Maori)

Our mission is to:

• Connect government policy makers, seabird conservation practitioners and scientists, land managers and communities from all Pacific Island countries and territories working with seabirds.
• To increase our collective understanding of the value of seabirds to Pacific economies and communities including cultural values.
• Highlight conservation and scientific initiatives currently underway or planned, to the benefit of region’s seabirds, their islands, and the seas where they occur and to the people of Oceania.
• Provide hands-on training and networking for increasing capacity for monitoring and managing Pacific seabird populations at community and national levels.
