The 8th IUCN Asia Regional Conservation Forum (RCF) will be held in Bangkok, Thailand, between 3 – 5 September 2024 under the theme ‘Reimagining Conservation in Asia: A Nature Positive Future‘. Held every four years, the IUCN Asia Regional Conservation Forum (RCF) serves as the leading platform for knowledge and partnerships in the region, bringing together key stakeholders in nature and biodiversity conservation.
The 8th IUCN Asia Regional Conservation Forum presents a timely and critical opportunity to come together as a Union in reimagining conservation, where we must encourage ourselves to take stock and transform, to reconceptualise and recalibrate, and to think outside and anew. The Forum will provide an open, interactive and neutral space for us to critically reflect on our past and future in conserving the region’s biodiversity for sustainable development. This encompasses a ‘reimagining’ of IUCN’s mission and roles, tools, frameworks, and approaches, as well as partnerships and resources.
