 Key Messages

  • Water is fundamental to life on our planet. Migratory birds and people need water to survive! 
  • The vast majority of migratory birds rely on water during their life cycles. Inland and coastal wetlands, rivers, lakes, streams, marshes, and ponds are all vital for feeding, drinking, or nesting, and as places to rest and refuel during their long journeys. 
  • Aquatic ecosystems are increasingly threatened around the world and so are the migratory birds that depend on them.
  • The increasing human demand for water, poor management, as well as pollution and climate change are the main threats. They are having a direct impact on the quantity and quality of water available to migratory birds. 
  • Water management deserves high-level political attention and needs concerted action across sectors. Water management is a key element in sustainable development and vital for bird conservation.
  • International cooperation is essential and necessary both for the conservation of migratory birds and for managing and protecting the world’s water resources.
