PSG Activities

PSG has an active program that includes annual meetings, hosting of symposia, several committees, and publications.

Annual Meetings

At yearly conferences, seabird researchers share their discoveries and conservation concerns with each other and the public. Reflecting the international distribution of Pacific seabirds, PSG Annual Meetings are often attended by people from throughout the world. Attendees benefit from the support, constructive criticism and insights of fellow participants, as well as from the exchange of scientific reports. Student presentations and reviews of ongoing research are encouraged. Learn More »

Join this year’s local committee and volunteer to help with the Registration Desk, be a Session Chair, be a Judge for the Student Paper Awards, assist with Audio-Visual, do some Fundraising, or provide general assistance to the Local Committee. Contact the Annual Meeting’s Local Committee for more information.

Committees

Conservation Grants

The objective of the Conservation Fund is to advance the conservation of seabirds by providing funds or supplies to individuals from developing countries as well as those from elsewhere working in those developing countries primarily in or bordering the Pacific Ocean, (1) for conservation and restoration activities that benefit seabirds in the Pacific Ocean; and (2) to help develop within-country seabird expertise in developing countries within or bordering the Pacific Ocean.
