A New Wader Lands: Hugo Ferreira Joins the Global Wader Team
We are thrilled to welcome Hugo Ferreira as our newest team member! Hugo recently defended his PhD thesis on “Demographic processes of a long-distant waterbird facing global changes,” the Eurasian Spoonbill, and will now apply his large datasets’ management skills for the good of waders.

Hugo will be replacing Josh Nightingale on the day-to-day operations of Global Wader, as Josh migrates towards new adventures. While we’ll miss having Josh as a core team member, we are excited to see him thrive in his next chapter.
