OUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE YET

The climate and extinction crises are here. Extreme fires, floods and global pandemics remind us that they, and we, are all connected. 

The brains and powers of us humans can be destructive on a small, blue, planet. But with vision and collaboration we can turn that around.

We look at these global challenges from different angles, through the eyes of migratory species, the most threatened animals on the planet.

Sacha spoke at the during the Indiana Dunes Birding Festival , where she spoke about her efforts in flying a paramotor from Russia to the UK and how it helped bring to light the decline in Bewick Swans and map their migration. Her upcoming endeavors will take her across the globe to raise awareness to declining vulture populations as she works to help change public perceptions that people often have of these wonderful scavengers. Sacha then visited Humane Indiana Wildlife to learn about their efforts to help native wildlife and to change public perception of misunderstood species here in Northwest Indiana. She even had the opportunity to meet their very own Ozzie, Turkey Vulture, and hear why he remains an ambassador for his species at their facility. Sacha’s powerful storytelling and bold conservation message left a lasting impact. Executive Director Brad Bumgardner summed it up perfectly: “Your message, stories, and energy brought something truly special to the weekend, and I know I wasn’t the only one who left feeling both inspired and challenged. I could see the crowd around you Saturday night after your talk.” "Sacha Dench was an amazing and inspiring speaker at the Bird Fest. What an impact she is having - risking so much to help the Bewick's Swans, said Mary Neil Murphy, longtime festival-goer and Indiana Audubon supporter..
