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..

The Extinction Express took off as we invited a range of people from different industries to join us on a journey to the front lines of conservation in Wales. We ventured into the world of vultures and how individuals and industries can work together to come-up with unique solutions. Jennifer Saunders joined us for the event and fell in love with vultures, she said: "Spent the most fascinating day with vultures. Beautiful birds full of character and much maligned.

At this year’s Anthropy event, we set out to shake things up, and we did just that! Instead of a traditional panel, we threw 70 attendees into an immersive, high-stakes workshop, challenging them to become MI5 Nature Agents. Their mission? To tackle biodiversity threats, with a special focus on vultures - nature’s most overlooked cleanup crew. From corporates and communicators to private sector leaders, NGOs, and students, everyone stepped outside their comfort zones to collaborate, strategise, and innovate in ways that reflect how real-world environmental challenges must be tackled, through partnerships and creative problem-solving. The results? Fresh ideas and a renewed sense of urgency to drive change. Businesses play a critical role in conservation, and this workshop proved that when diverse minds come together, we can turn challenges into opportunities. A huge thank you to everyone who participated. We’re excited about the next steps and the partnerships that emerged.
