European Parliament Workshop on Wildlife Crime

We were delighted to be invited to participate in a new, innovative workshop, organised by Mr Gerben-Jan Gerbrandy ((MEP, Netherlands) and Mr Kriton Arsenis (MEP, Greece), on the subject of Wildlife Crime.

"The EU does not tackle the problem of wildlife crime sufficiently. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton put the issue high on the agenda of the USA. It's high time for the EU to also develop  an action plan to fight wildlife crime" said Mr Gerbrandy.

The event took place on the 27th February in the European Parliament in Brussels and lasted for 2.5 hours.  Our 16 minute presentation can be viewed by clicking the link here.

Please DONATE  if you can to support our work to conserve the remaining fragile lion populations. Thank you.
