Joint Ventures In Action
Birds & Habitats
Keep Common Species Common
Joint Venture partners work to keep common species common and address the needs of species of conservation concern due to small distributions, high threats, or declining populations.
Partnerships
Local, Regional, and National
Partnerships are the backbone to the Joint Ventures. JVs cultivate and support partnerships that protect and restore habitat for the benefit of birds, other wildlife, and people.
Science
Strategic Habitat Conservation
Joint Ventures consider the biological and ecological aspects of birds and habitat, as well as the social science that is the foundation for the human dimensions of conservation.
