In collaboration with TRAFFIC & Singapore Wildcat Action Group.
This event has ended.
From tiger cubs trafficked in transit hubs, to the fight to save Singapore’s last wildcats, Southeast Asia is one of the world’s most critical battlegrounds for biodiversity—and for wildlife crime.
This evening, we invite you to take a seat at the frontlines. In partnership with TRAFFIC and Singapore Wildcat Action Group (SWAG), Mandala Club presents an eye-opening conversation with two of the region’s leading conservation voices.
What to expect:
- First-hand insights on the scope, scale, and urgency of illegal wildlife trade in Southeast Asia
- On-the-ground stories from tiger corridors and citizen patrols
- Practical ways to support the conservation movement
- A chance to connect with TRAFFIC, SWAG, and fellow members passionate about sustainability
