Along the birds' migration routes, these habitats are increasingly being reduced due to human influence. In order to show ways to successfully protect the remaining areas in the future, numerous lectures, bird watching and other events are organised for the public around the world to mark World Migratory Bird Day. Interested parties can register their own events.
