For over three decades I have worked for BirdLife International,
first as Chairman of what was then the ICBP Bustard Group,
then 1981–2001 as compiler of the International Bird
Red Data Book, and since 2001 as Leventis Fellow in Conservation
Biology, in which capacity amongst other things I:
-
support PhD work (at Cambridge University, University
of East Anglia, Oxford University, Manchester Metropolitan
University, and UNESP São Paulo) on threatened
birds and habitats in St Lucia, the Peruvian Amazon, Brazil,
Botswana, Cambodia and the Philippines,
-
undertake
fieldwork on threatened birds in Brazil, Ethiopia and
Spain,
-
work
on various taxonomic issues relating to the BirdLife International
world checklist of birds (with particular emphasis on
Asian species), and
-
sit on the advisory boards of the Loro Parque Foundation
(Tenerife, Spain), National Aviary (Pittsburgh, USA),
Parrots International (Los Angeles, USA), Act for Nature
Foundation (Monaco) and ProAves Colombia (Bogotá,
Colombia), and the Council of the Oriental Bird Club (Bedford,
UK)
My
