RSPB Centre for Conservation Science
Steffen Oppel, Senior Conservation Scientist

I worked as conservation scientist at the RSPB Centre for Conservation Science to save globally threatened species, but in May 2023 I moved to the Swiss Ornithological Institute where I study the ecology of Red Kites.
The goal of my work is to achieve effective conservation of threatened species and their habitats through a thorough understanding of their ecology and demography and ensure that management measures are based on solid evidence.
MY LATEST RESEARCH
In November 2023 we published the results of 10 years of successful conservation work along the eastern Mediterranean flyway to save the Balkan population of Egyptian Vultures.
