About this Talk

Tech Against the Illegal Wildlife Trade: a session that will explore the latest developments in the field of technology and how it might be applied to combat the illegal wildlife trade, including online. The session will explore the GI-TOC’s newly created tool ‘The Cascade’ and its findings on Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCM), the ethics of intervening in illicit markets and discuss how IWT is inextricably linked with the wider global crisis of climate change and pandemics. We will use the catwalk format to crowdsource and brainstorm areas of intervention for our MMFU going forwards.
