Today, we’re bringing you into the heart of our latest journey—one that began at the 12th World Wilderness Congress and is now heading to the IUCN World Conservation Congress in October of this year, 2025, in Abu Dhabi.It all started with important resolutions passed at WILD12, many started by passionate individuals outside of the environmental policy realm, addressing key conservation issues that WILD works on every day. Following the Congress, WILD and a variety of co-sponsors worked to transform several of these resolutions into formal motions for submission to the IUCN World Conservation Congress. These motions, four of which were proposed, have now all been accepted— this is just the beginning of our journey on the road to Abu Dhabi.So what happened between WILD12 and now? How did these resolutions evolve into official motions? Why are they important? And more importantly—how can you be part of what’s next? Environmental policy can be a tricky world for a person like you or I to understand and even play a part in. We’re breaking everything down for you today so that you can join us in keeping Earth wild at a global scale.Before listening to the episode, please consider supporting our work at WILD.org, which allows us to dedicate time to creating these conversations for you.Hosted by Ausha.
