Despite significantly increased international interest in addressing the illegal wildlife trade, this issue continues to present a serious challenge for global conservation efforts.
On Tuesday, September 26th, John Simpson, CBE, BBC World Affairs Editor, will chair this lively debate. Panellists will address the many dimensions of the illegal wildlife trade and its consequences, including those arising from accountability, donor interests, evidence-based policy and livelihood concerns of local communities.
Doors will open at 16.30, and the debate will start promptly at 17.00.
Attendance to this debate is free and open to all, if you are attending the symposium you are automatically pre-registered. For those not attending the symposium, please pre-register.
