On behalf of the International Organizing Committee, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to the International Symposium on “Advancing Synergy in Biodiversity and Wildlife: Ecology, Health, and Human-Wildlife Conflict”, to be held on 6–7 December 2025.

In an era of rapid environmental change, the interconnections between biodiversity, wildlife health, and human well-being have never been more evident—or more urgent. This symposium is designed as a platform to foster dialogue, share cutting-edge research, and strengthen collaboration among scientists, conservation practitioners, policymakers, and community leaders from around the globe.

Over two days, we will explore four core themes:
• Biodiversity in a Changing World – understanding the resilience and vulnerability of ecosystems.
• Wildlife Health and One Health Perspectives – bridging the health of animals, humans, and the environment.
• Human-Wildlife Interactions and Conflict Mitigation – addressing challenges and seeking solutions for coexistence.
• Integrative Approaches for Sustainable Futures – uniting science, policy, and communities for long-term impact.

We envision this symposium as more than a scientific gathering. It is an opportunity to advance synergy across disciplines and borders, to listen and learn from diverse voices, and to chart pathways toward a future where humans and wildlife thrive together.

We warmly invite you to join us in December 2025, and to contribute your expertise, perspectives, and passion to this important dialogue. Together, let us create new knowledge, foster collaboration, and inspire action for biodiversity and wildlife conservation worldwide.

We look forward to welcoming you!

With warm regards,
