At this week’s IUCN World Conservation Congress in Abu Dhabi, Audubon brings its science, coverage experience, and hemispheric perspective to one of many world’s largest gatherings of conservation leaders. By collaborating, Audubon ensures that world decision-makers perceive sensible, science-based approaches connecting birds, habitats, and neighborhood priorities.
A World Discussion board for Motion
Subsequent week, greater than 10,000 representatives from governments, Indigenous Peoples’ organizations, NGOs, worldwide organizations, philanthropies, and the personal sector—together with the Nationwide Audubon Society—will meet in Abu Dhabi to deal with biodiversity loss and local weather change, central priorities of Audubon’s Flight Plan.
Held each 4 years, the Congress unites scientists, policymakers, implementers, and funders to collaborate on revolutionary options to pressing environmental challenges. This 12 months’s program facilities on 5 themes:
- Scaling Up Resilient Conservation Motion
- Decreasing Local weather Overshoot Dangers
- Delivering on Fairness
- Transitioning to Nature-Optimistic Economies and Societies
- Disruptive Innovation and Management for Conservation
Delegates will have interaction in plenaries, panels, and aspect occasions, vote on motions shaping world conservation coverage, and take part in summits for youth, Indigenous Peoples, companies, and philanthropists. Past the formal classes, hallways and cafés will buzz with collaboration, partnerships, and problem-solving—all geared toward reversing biodiversity and local weather declines.

Hovering Seas: Seabirds and Rising Alternatives for Worldwide Marine Conservation
Audubon employees, alongside Rafael Ângelo Revorêdo of the Centro de Estudos e Monitoramento Ambiental (CEMAM), will spotlight collaborative efforts to revive seabird populations throughout hemispheres. Attendees will see how a long time of restoration work within the U.S. and Brazil present insights for resilient ecosystems and coordinated motion. Audio system embrace Audubon’s Chris Dragisic, Bethany Kraft, Chad Wilsey, in addition to Rafael Ângelo Revorêdo of CEMAM.

It Begins With Birds: Local weather, Biodiversity, and Nature-Primarily based Options
Audubon employees and companions will discover how local weather impacts species throughout the Americas and the way nature-based methods can strengthen ecosystems and communities. Individuals will learn the way science informs coverage, partnerships, and initiatives throughout continents. Audio system embrace Audubon’s Chris Dragisic and Chad Wilsey, Chaz Colier from Seal River Watershed Alliance and Lesley Dickie from BirdLife Worldwide).
Advancing Science Throughout Hemispheres
The World Conservation Congress is about connection—between science, coverage, ecosystems, and communities. Via its management and participation, Audubon highlights how analysis and sensible options can tackle complicated environmental challenges. By integrating views on species, habitats, and human communities, Audubon ensures these priorities affect motion at each scale.
