# Fourth meeting of the ACAP Population and Conservation Status Working Group: a participant portfolio

The Albatross and Petrel Agreement’s Population and Conservation Status Working Group ([PaCSWG4](https://www.acap.aq/en/documents/working-groups/population-and-conservation-status-working-group/population-and-conservation-status-wg-meeting-4)), is holding its fourth meeting this week in Wellington, New Zealand. The two days of discussions follow a three-day meeting of a sister ACAP Working Group on seabird bycatch ([SBWG8](https://www.acap.aq/en/documents/working-groups/seabird-bycatch-working-group/seabird-bycatch-wg-meeting-8)).  The deliberations of both groups will be reported to the 10th Meeting of the ACAP Advisory Committee ([AC10](https://www.acap.aq/en/documents/advisory-committee/ac10)) next week.
