Alaska Migratory Bird Co-Management Council

We are proud currently serve as the host organization for the Alaska Migratory Bird Co-Management Council, providing administrative and organizational support that allows the statewide Council to carry out its work.

​

AMBCC Executive Director Patty Schwalenberg is hosted through AITRC and works with Alaska Native representatives, federal and state agencies, regional co-management bodies, researchers, and communities across Alaska. Hosting AMBCC aligns closely with AITRC’s broader commitment to Tribal participation in natural resource management and co-management. Through this relationship, AITRC helps support a statewide process that ensures Indigenous voices, traditional harvest practices, and community knowledge are represented in migratory bird conservation and management.
