Welcome to the official Web site of the U.S. NABCI Committee.

The U.S. North American Bird Conservation Initiative (NABCI) Committee is a forum of government agencies, private organizations, and bird initiatives helping partners across the continent meet their common bird conservation objectives.

The Committee's strategy is to foster coordination and collaboration on key issues of concern, including coordinated bird monitoring, conservation design, private land conservation, international conservation, and institutional support in state and federal agencies for integrated bird conservation.

It's the 10th Anniversary of the U.S. NABCI Committee!

Read more about the Committee's accomplishments in its recent brochure, A Decade of Integrating Bird Conservation.
