More than 150 experts, scientists, NGO representatives, students and other interested individuals participated in the International Conference on the “Conservation and Management of Vulture Populations” (14-16 November 2005, Thessaloniki, Greece). Emphasis was given to transnational cooperation and representatives of Balkan NGOs (Bulgaria, Croatia, FYROM, Serbia and Montenegro) as well as Turkey, Ukraine and Israel were invited to participate. Invited speakers from Europe and other parts of the world presented their experience regarding the topics of the conference (e.g. monitoring systems, artificial feeding, habitat modelling, population dynamics, reintroduction projects, conservation genetics, and specific studies of LIFE projects), while an extensive discussion took part after the end of the oral presentations. A parallel poster exhibition was also held.
