As we conclude the Nature FIRST project, we invite you to a gathering of conservationists, researchers, policymakers, and innovators. This conference is not just the end of a project but the beginning of new networks, partnerships, and transformative ideas in biodiversity conservation.
Immerse yourself in interactive booths showcasing NatureFIRST outputs and other brilliant innovations for biodiversity conservation, engage in hands-on conservation workshops, and connect through matchmaking sessions designed to cultivate valuable partnerships for the future.
Hosted in collaboration with Bears in Mind, a Dutch foundation providing a sanctuary for rescued bears at Het Berenbos in Ouwehands Dierenpark, this conference is a unique gathering that will make an unforgettable experience.
Meet the visionaries behind cutting-edge conservation tools that will make your work more efficient and impactful. The focus will be on the following key pillars:
Biodiversity Monitoring
Human-wildlife Conflict Solutions (including wildlife radars and forensic evidence collection)
Habitat Mapping & Monitoring
Knowledge Graph for smarter conservation
Join us in The Netherlands on June 25-26, 2025 to be part of our movement to create impactful initiatives that extend far beyond this event.
