The International Conference for Women Birders (ICWB) is an event designed to celebrate and promote the participation of women in the field of birdwatching and ornithology. It provides a platform for female birders from around the world to come together, share their experiences, learn from each other, and contribute to the advancement of birding as a hobby and a science.
ICWB typically features presentations, workshops, field trips, and networking opportunities focused on various aspects of birding, including bird identification, conservation efforts, habitat preservation, and research initiatives. The conference aims to create a supportive and inclusive environment where women can connect with fellow enthusiasts, build skills, and gain inspiration to further their involvement in birding.
By highlighting the contributions of women in the field of ornithology and promoting gender equity in birding communities, ICWB plays an important role in fostering diversity and inclusion within the birding community and encouraging more women to participate in this rewarding pastime.
