ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The Steering Committees of the Northeast (NEPIF) and Southeast Partners in Flight (SEPIF) regional working groups have agreed to hold a joint conference in Virginia Beach, Virginia, on October 6-9, 2014. Many federal agencies, state fish and wildlife agencies, and various non-government organizations are active participants in both NEPIF and SEPIF, and both working groups provide relevant forums for advancing our shared bird conservation priorities related to nongame bird conservation. The overall goal of hosting a joint conference is to bring together the bird conservation community across the eastern United States to improve linkages and enhance coordination and collaboration among individual partner efforts, and provide more unified approaches for guiding conservation at landscape scales.
Since the inception of PIF in 1990, collaboration has been an essential component of PIF efforts to address species at risk and keep common birds common through voluntary partnerships. This has resulted in more efficient and effective planning and delivery of bird conservation, across organizational boundaries and landscapes. This conference will be a timely opportunity to carry this momentum forward.
