This conference, which was originally planned for April 2020, will now take place from 30 March – 1 April 2023 in Oxford, UK. It aims at enhancing dialogue and collaboration on human-wildlife conflicts across sectors and disciplines as a global priority in biodiversity conservation, and at promoting ways to reduce and manage these conflicts. Members of the EU Platform and the Secretariat will participate in the exchange and present the work carried out during the previous year addressing regional stakeholder platforms, their members’ interactions and expectations in the context of promoting coexistence.
