In November, in Cape Town, I had the privilege of representing both the Mirpuri Foundation and Hi Fly at the United for Wildlife Global Summit. Both organizations are deeply committed to conservation and tackling the illegal wildlife trade, and it was invaluable to join leaders in law enforcement, conservation, and business from around the world to address these critical issues.

Key outcomes included new support packages for rangers, insights on the state of illegal wildlife trade, and strategies to enhance cross-sector cooperation.

For me, this summit underscored the importance of collaboration across sectors to protect our planet from illegal wildlife trade, devastating wildlife species. Looking forward to building on the progress made and contributing to the critical work ahead.
