Mission & Goals
BirdLife Europe is the European Division of BirdLife International, a worldwide Partnership of more than 120 bird and nature conservation organisations that work to conserve birds, their habitats and global biodiversity, working with people towards sustainability in the use of natural resources. The European Division coordinates the activities of 46 member organisations in Europe, including all EU27 Member States. BirdLife Europe supports the development of EU environmental policy and its implementation and raises awareness about the importance of birds and biodiversity at EU, European and global levels. BirdLife Europe is committed to transparency about EU interest representation. BirdLife Europe believes that this register does not meet basic transparency standards and that it does not provide EU lobbying transparency. When registering, we have therefore chosen to give all relevant information that we consider necessary for lobbying transparency.
