Republic of Korea-Australia Migratory Bird Agreement
International efforts to conserve migratory birds of the East Asian - Australasian Flyway began with bilateral migratory bird agreements between Australia and Japan (JAMBA, formed in 1974) and Australia and China (CAMBA, signed in 1986). These agreements provide a formal framework for cooperation on issues of mutual interest.
In April 2002, Australia and the Republic of Korea agreed to develop a bilateral migratory bird agreement similar to the JAMBA and CAMBA agreements. The Republic of Korea-Australia Migratory Bird Agreement (ROKAMBA) was signed in Canberra on 6 December 2006 and came into force on 13 July 2007. Similar to the JAMBA and CAMBA agreements, ROKAMBA formalises the relationship between Australia and the Republic of Korea in respect to migratory bird conservation and provides a basis for collaboration on the protection of migratory shorebirds and their habitat.
