As announced in the 2030 EU Biodiversity Strategy, the European Commission is currently evaluating and preparing a revision of the Action Plan, which constitutes a pivotal opportunity to ensure the EU’ plays an even greater role in the fight against wildlife trafficking both regionally and globally.\nWildlife trafficking is inherently cross-border, and this webinar aims at understanding the role the EU WAP has been playing and should play in the future in supporting and cooperating with the source, transit, and consumer countries outside of the EU.  The EU WAP will impact many communities across the globe, and it is important to understand how wildlife crime is at the nexus of poverty, financial crime and corruption issues, and the challenges faced by indigenous and local communities.\nAs the EU launches other key initiatives such as NaturAfrica and the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive, and is programming the funds under the new Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument (NDICI), the revision of the EU WAP comes at a critical time in the fight against biodiversity loss and social injustices.\n \nFINAL AGENDA\nModerated by: Justine Guiny, Senior Policy Officer, TRAFFIC\n\n14:30 – 14:35    Welcome remarks by MEP María Soraya Rodríguez Ramos\n \n14:35 – 14:50    Keynote remarks by Agata Sobiech, CITES Team Leader, DG ENV, European Commission\n \n14:50 – 15:35     Panel discussion with the participation of:\n\nTaye Teferi, Policy and partnership coordinator for Africa, TRAFFIC International\nPhilippe Mayaux, Team Leader on Biodiversity, DG INTPA, European Commission\nTamara Léger, Global Coordinator, Human Rights and Wildlife Crime, WWF International\n\n \n15:35 – 15:55      Q&As session with the audience\n \n15:55 – 16:00     Closing remarks by Taye Teferi, Policy and partnership coordinator for Africa, TRAFFIC International\n												\n																										\nVenue\nWebex\nDocuments of the meeting\nFinal Agenda – EP Intergroup event on international wildlife trafficking ( https://ebcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Final-Agenda-EP-Intergroup-event-on-international-wildlife-trafficking.pdf )\nWebinar Recording ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt3RvePLch4 )\nWebinar Report – The future of fighting against international wildlife trafficking ( https://ebcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Webinar-Report-The-future-of-fighting-against-international-wildlife-trafficking.pdf )\nRegistration Report ( https://ebcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Registrartion-Report-1.pdf )\nEuropean Commission – Agata Sobiech – PDF Presentation ( https://ebcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/European-Commission-Agata-Sobiech-PDF-Presentation.pdf )\n
