Article submissions for the KBA Community Newsletter #18 are now open!

[Key Biodiversity Areas Community]

Dear community members, 

We are thrilled to invite to be part of the 18th edition of the KBA Community Newsletter, and to submit your KBA-related updates, news, or lessons learned to share with the global KBA Community of practice and experts.

Please submit your articles in Word format, including a title and author. If a photo is included, please provide the title and credit in the document, and attach the photo/s in JPEG separately.

Please, see below the guidance to follow when sending articles.

Maintain a base structure for the articles as follows:

1. Title
2. Summary
3. Highlight or highlights.
4. Content (body of the article): We do not have a limit of characters as such, but we advise you to keep your articles under two pages (or two pages max).

Regarding the images, it would be nice to have at least two per article (if we can get more, even better) so we can have image-text balance. Here are some recommendations for those images:

• Format: PNG or JPG
• Color mode: RGB
• Size: max. 2 megabytes in size
• Full-Width Images: 2400x1600px
• Inside content images: horizontal – max width 1500px, vertical – max width 1000px, jpeg
• Squared images: max. 1600x1600 px

Also, bear in mind that infographics and graphs can also accompany your submissions.

You may submit the article in your preferred language, but we ask you to also translate it into English. Please email your article to Sophia Lucero at sophia...@birdlife.org until March 31 2025.

Kind regards, and thanks in advance!
