Perspective: Rethinking partnerships to strengthen migratory shorebird conservation

Perspective articles are opinion pieces written at the invitation of the Editors and discuss a theme in wader/shorebird biology, ecology or conservation. Opinions expressed in these articles are not necessarily those of the Editors or of the International Wader Study Group.
