Mar 12 2025 (15:00 – 17:00)
Location: Fryske Akademy

This Woemibo we have a Creative as well as Scientific topic on the agenda. First up, Campus Fryslan students Esther, Esmee and Marij will pitch their concept for a BirdEyes-inspired exhibition and source feedback from the team. Second, we have a guest talk by Hans Linssen, PhD student at UvA and NIOO-KNAW. Hans is working on parental transmission of migratory behaviour in Bewick’s swans. He will share some preliminary results and is looking to collect input on his analysis.

Agenda

In addition, we are currently organizing targeted work meetings, building on the traditions that we have developed during the Wadvogelwerk (Metawad-Waddenfonds), Kening fan ‘e Greide for many years, and the black-tailed godwit research in southwest Fryslân.

Centre for global ecological change at the University of Groningen

Birdeyes is a science and creative centre that views the world - almost literally - through the eyes of birds. More and more birds are flying around with tiny transmitters, loggers and other high technology on their backs and legs. This generates an unimaginable amount of information. By cleverly combining such data with other sources of information, and by using new ways to tell stories and share the insights with, BirdEyes strives to open up a new knowledge network. The centre at the Faculties of Science & Engineering and Campus Fryslân aims to be an innovative part of the University of Groningen and is linked to the Rudolph Agricola School for Sustainable Development. BirdEyes, with empirical and inspirational roots in the farthest corners of the world.
