Red List Update 2020

Help us protect threatened birds

In December 2020, BirdLife unveiled this year’s Red List ups and downs – with mixed results for the world’s birds. Birds continue to decline in numbers, and urgently need our help to prevent their extinctions.

Donating today can:

Help us to restore habitats, from forests to wetlands, to protect up-listed birds
Enable us to assess the extinction risk of every bird species, so we can fund urgent action where it's needed
Provide urgent funds to react to emergencies, such as vulture poisonings
Work with indigenous peoples to protect their local forests, and the birds that live in them

Overall, we have moved 40 species to a higher threat category – a stark reminder of the carnage human activity continues to wreak on nature. But elsewhere, several species have shown signs of recovery – proof that conservation works, and that the Red List is not a one-way elevator to extinction.

For many of the 40 species ‘uplisted’ this year, this is not the end but the beginning of their road to recovery – your support will help us continue our vital work to protect and conserve the worlds' most threatened bird species.
