Preface

This proceeding compiles all papers presented in the 11 th Asian Raptor Research and Conservation Network (ARRCN) International Symposium, which was held at the Udayana University, Bali, Indonesia on 10-11 October 2019. The symposium was aimed to exchange information among ARRCN members, in order to compile a database on raptors, including their distribution, population, habitat, ecology, breeding and all other aspects important to their conservation, especially on the status of native Asian raptors. There were several parties collaborated with ARRCN to organize this international symposium, namely the Udayana University, the Directorate General of Natural Resource Conservation and Ecosystem Ministry of Environment and Forestry of Republic Indonesia, the Indonesian Ornithologist Union, and the Pertamina Geothermal Energy.
