Welcome to GLOBAL WADER

Global Wader is a community-led initiative aiming to become a definitive register of wader/shorebird tracking projects currently underway or completed.

Global Wader has three main purposes:
  • Maintain an up-to-date register of all wader tracking projects currently undertaken
  • Encourage best practices in the long-term storage of tracking data, including the use of specialist repositories via a partnership with Movebank
  • Facilitate collaborations between trackers, scientists and conservationists, including promoting open access to data, and facilitating data-sharing where appropriate, particularly for efforts towards the conservation of these species
