Africa-Eurasia Waterbird Agreement

The Africa-Eurasia Waterbird Agreement (AEWA) is an international treaty focused on conserving migratory waterbirds that travel between Africa and Eurasia. It aims to protect these species and their habitats through coordinated efforts, research, and awareness. By bringing countries together, AEWA helps ensure that waterbirds and their ecosystems are preserved amid threats like habitat loss, pollution, and climate change. The agreement promotes sustainable management and international cooperation to maintain healthy populations of waterbirds for future generations.
