Partners in Flight (PIF) is a collaborative network of over 150 partner organizations dedicated to conserving land birds and their habitats. The partnership hatched in the early 1990s in response to widespread declines in Neotropical migratory land birds. Today, partners range from not-for-profit organizations working on the ground to conservation research-focused academics, to government agencies and funding institutions. To PIF, each partner brings their strengths, capacities, and expertise, thus enabling the partnership to achieve greater conservation outcomes of a larger scope and scale than any one partner could achieve on their own. Like our “shared” birds, PIF partners range from South to North America and many places in between.

PIF’s current direction is guided by the PIF Landbird Conservation Plan, 2016 Revision for Canada and the Continental United States. A priority is strengthening connections between PIF, the PIF Shorebird–Waterbird Subcommittee, State Flyways, and Habitat Joint Ventures to advance coordinated bird and habitat strategies.
