Dear
National Contact Points of Signatories to the Raptors MOU,
Cooperating Partners to the Raptors MOU,
Members of the Technical Advisory Group to the Raptors MOU,
Colleague conservationists,
The Coordinating Unit of the Raptors MOU is pleased to announce the release of our new report, “Raptors Reintroduction and Reinforcement Programmes: Experiences from the Field.” This report draws on extensive case studies and interviews to highlight the key factors contributing to successful raptor conservation efforts.
To present these findings and discuss the experiences shared by contributors, we are hosting a webinar on 11 June 2026 at 13:00 (GMT + 4 - Abu Dhabi time).
You can join the session directly via this link. Or by copying and pasting on your browser the following URL: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/343404350235188?p=vbIzwd7rv0BKJ0Csxz
Both reintroduction and reinforcement are conservation tools increasingly used to halt or reverse declines of raptors, especially in regions where threats such as poisoning, habitat loss and poaching have caused a serious decline in population.
The webinar will feature a presentation of the report’s findings, followed by brief statements from several experts involved in the programmes.
We look forward to your participation and the opportunity to share these insights with the conservation community.
Best regards
Umberto Gallo-Orsi
Head, Coordinating Uniti
