Notification of decisions: 27 March 2026

Building on the success of previous World Seabird Conferences, WSC 4 once again places seabirds at the forefront of global scientific discussion. This international event provides a platform for seabird scientists, early-career researchers, policymakers, and conservationists from around the world to connect, share, and collaborate.

The conference will focus on:

 

  • Seabird biology and ecology
  • Adaptive capacity and climate resilience
  • Innovative conservation strategies
  • Emerging technologies in marine science
  • Collaborative approaches to global seabird challenges

The programme will feature symposia, contributed sessions, and interactive workshops aimed at fostering knowledge exchange and real-world conservation impact.
