Held every four years, this premier ornithological conference brings together leading scientists, researchers, students and world experts in the fie

ld of ornithology. The conference is planned by a Steering Committee made up of representatives from various ornithological groups including: American Ornithologists’ Union (AOU), Association of Field Ornithologists, Cooper Ornithological Society, Birds Caribbean, Society of Canadian Ornithologists and the Wilson Ornithological Society. Originally created with a focus on North America, the NAOC has now expanded to include groups from all over the Western Hemisphere, making it one of the largest ornithological conferences ever held. The conference will feature lectures by world experts, workshops, round table discussions and interactive sessions and symposia on a vast array of topics such as systematics and taxonomy, reproductive biology, population and community ecology, ecotoxicology and conservation biology to name a few.
