It was founded to coordinate efforts to conserve bird species migrating between European and African nations, and its current scope stretches from the Arctic to South Africa, encompassing the Canadian archipelago and the Middle East as well as Europe and Africa.The agreement focuses on bird species that depend on wetlands for at least part of their lifecycle and cross international borders in their migration patterns. It currently covers 254 species.[2]Table of ContentsParties[edit]Meetings[edit]Treaties[edit]Ban on lead shot[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]Parties[edit]Parties to AEWARegionParty NameDate in ForceAfricaEgypt1999-01-01AfricaNiger1999-01-01AfricaCongo1999-11-01AfricaGambia1999-11-01AfricaGuinea1999-11-01AfricaSenegal1999-11-01AfricaSudan1999-11-01AfricaTanzania1999-11-01AfricaTogo1999-11-01EurasiaGermany1999-11-01EurasiaJordan1999-11-01EurasiaMonaco1999-11-01EurasiaNetherlands1999-11-01EurasiaSpain1999-11-01EurasiaSweden1999-11-01EurasiaSwitzerland1999-11-01EurasiaUnited Kingdom1999-11-01AfricaBenin2000-1-01AfricaMali2000-1-01EurasiaDenmark2000-1-01EurasiaFinland2000-1-01EurasiaBulgaria2000-2-01EurasiaMacedonia2000-2-01EurasiaCroatia2000-9-01EurasiaRomania2000-10-01AfricaUganda2000-12-01AfricaMauritius2001-1-01EurasiaMoldova2001-4-01AfricaKenya2001-6-01EurasiaSlovakia2001-7-01EurasiaGeorgia2001-8-01EurasiaAlbania2001-9-01AfricaSouth Africa2002-4-01EurasiaIsrael2002-11-01EurasiaLebanon2002-12-01AfricaEquatorial Guinea2003-1-01EurasiaUkraine2003-1-01EurasiaHungary2003-3-01EurasiaIreland2003-8-01EurasiaSyria2003-8-01EurasiaSlovenia2003-10-01EurasiaFrance2003-12-01EurasiaLuxembourg2003-12-01AfricaDjibouti2004-3-01EurasiaPortugal2004-3-01EurasiaUzbekistan2004-4-01AfricaNigeria2004-7-01EurasiaLithuania2004-11-01AfricaLibya2005-6-01AfricaTunisia2005-7-01AfricaGhana2005-10-01EurasiaEuropean Union2005-10-01EurasiaLatvia2006-1-01EurasiaBelgium2006-6-01EurasiaCzech Republic2006-6-23EurasiaItaly2006-9-01AfricaAlgeria2006-10-01AfricaGuinea-Bissau2006-11-01AfricaMadagascar2007-1-01EurasiaCyprus2008-9-01EurasiaNorway2008-9-01EurasiaEstonia2008-11-01AfricaEthiopia2010-2-01AfricaChad2011-11-01EurasiaMontenegro2011-11-01AfricaZimbabwe2012-06-01AfricaGabon2012-12-01AfricaMorocco2012-12-01AfricaeSwatini2013-01-01AfricaC\u00f4te d’Ivoire2013-06-01EurasiaIceland2013-06-01AfricaBurkina Faso2013-10-01AfricaRwanda2014-09-01AfricaBurundi2014-10-01AfricaMauritania2015-05-01EurasiaBelarus2016-04-01AfricaBotswana2017-11-01AfricaCentral African Republic2019-01-01Meetings[edit]The Parties meet every few years.
