World Conservation Day is focused on addressing the problem of poaching and wildlife trafficking around the world. For poachers and criminals it is a huge business, but it is also one that illegally slaughters thousands of animals a year, bringing many species to the brink of extinction and beyond.

The day itself originated with the US State Department. In 2012, then US Secretary of State, Hilary Clinton, called for greater action and awareness to defeat the problem of wildlife trafficking. She highlighted the fact that when wildlife is gone, it is gone, so the criminals and organised gangs of today are robbing future generations of something that cannot be replaced.

The WWF (World Wildlife Fund) joined the call as well, encouraging organisations and individuals concerned with wildlife conservation to get involved. The day itself is marked in December every year.

       The theme for International Day of Conservation on December 3 is:

   "Protecting Biodiversity for a Sustainable Future"

However, I also found that the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has declared the theme for December 3 as:

"Conserving Biodiversity for a Resilient Planet"

Both themes emphasize the importance of conservation and protecting biodiversity for a sustainable and resilient future.

On Behalf of this Mahe Co-operative College of Teacher Education, English association celebrated the day.
