The Flyway Action Plan for the Conservation of the Balkan and Central Asian Populations of the Egyptian Vulture (EVFAP) is the first plan, posted on the online platform for monitoring the implementation of bird action plans created within the BirdLife International project LIFE EuroSAP.

LIFE EuroSAP aims to tackle the severe threats that affect the conservation of iconic birds on a continental scale. LIFE EuroSAP will run for three years, involving 13 partners and covering a total of 16 species. The bird species targeted by the LIFE EuroSAP project are some of the most charismatic and threatened in Europe.

The platform provides the ability to track the development and implementation of international action plans for the conservation of birds. Everyone can find basic documents, links to online databases conservation projects or to contact people involved in developing concrete action plans.

Currently is carrying out a month-long Public Consultation Exercise on a draft Flyway Action Plan for the Conservation of the Balkan and Central Asian Populations of the Egyptian Vulture (EVFAP). All comments will be reviewed and, where appropriate, integrated into the final version of EVFAP which is due to be completed by the end March 2017. The EVFAP will form a key component of the Multi-species Action Plan to Conserve African-Eurasian Vultures (Vulture MsAP), which is being developed for presentation at the 12th Meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP12) to the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS), scheduled to be held in Manilla, Philippines in October 2017.

The Consultation period runs until 20 February 2017.
