Resources - Showcasing EAZA's activities
EAZA Annual Reports and other publications
There are several documents summarising the wealth and range of work carried out by EAZA through the activities of our Committees, Taxon Advisory Groups, Working Groups, Members and collaborators. We encourage you to read them and share them with your stakeholders to evidence the crucial role zoos and aquariums play in saving species.

TAGs meet at least once per year and evaluate their EEPs every five years to ensure the quality of intensively managed populations. A detailed overview of these activities can be found in the TAG Reports listed below.

We encourage you to use it to familiarise yourself and your colleagues with the association's activities and get a better sense of how your work fits within the common goals of our community. We will soon make it available in other languages too.

Through their living collections, zoos and aquariums are uniquely placed to contribute to conservation-related research.
