2013 BirdLife World Congress was held between 19th and 22nd June in Ottawa, Canada. Partners, conservationists, politicians and business people from more than 120 countries came to join the big event which held every 4 to 5 years. The 2013 BirdLife International World Congress marks also two major anniversaries: the 90th anniversary of the organisation from which BirdLife evolved, and the 20th anniversary of the BirdLife Partnership.

這次大會最令人印像深刻的是12歲來自福州的小鴒鴒的演講, 她在兩年前參加了我們舉辦的培訓活動, 之後一直積極參與保育和宣教活動, 努力影響身邊的人愛護鳥類。
The most impressive speech was given by 12-year-old Tina Lin from Fuzhou, China. She participated in one of our activity two years ago. Since then, she has been working hard to help promoting conservation and appreciating birds to people in her home town.
另外一個亮點, 就是台南七股和香港米埔(WWF-Hong Kong) 獲得國際保育大獎, 他們在黑臉琵鷺的保育工作上受到世界的肯定。
