The Wild Animal Rescue Network (WARN) Asia is proud to host a workshop on the international cooperation and monitoring of the cross-border illegal wildlife trade in East and Southeast Asia.
Day 3 of the WARN 2024 conference
We have wrapped up the third and final day of this year’s WARN Asia conference.
The morning session was packed with presentations covering a wide range of topics. We heard from Animals Asia, Free the Bears, Asia for Animals, Sumatran Sun Bear Team, Wild Welfare, Four Paws Viet, and Save Vietnam’s Wildlife. We also got to hear from independent consultant Madelon Rusman.
After a delicious lunch, the afternoon session featured presentations from the Centre for Orangutan Protection (COP), Our Wild Neighbours (OWN), ACRES, Taiwan Biodiversity Research Institute, Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Center (BSBCC), and Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Gardens.
The conference has been a big success, providing an excellent opportunity for our members to network, reconnect, and share their experiences and insights. This year we have gathered representatives from 30 organisations from a total of 15 countries.
We look forward to gathering everyone again for next year’s conference, as well as for exciting workshops in the coming months.
