the upcoming hybrid workshop on the European Commission’s pilot project “Reframing the Exotic Pet Trade in Europe – Developing Effective Science-Based Demand Reduction Interventions” is Tuesday, 21 October 2025.
The workshop will take place on 28 October 2025, from 09:30 – 13:30 CET, at the Royal Library of Belgium, Brussels, followed by a vegan networking lunch until 14:00.
While online participation will be possible, we highly encourage you to join us in person, as the thematic discussion groups will be far more interactive on site. Being physically present will allow you to actively exchange ideas, provide feedback directly, and collaborate closely with other stakeholders – helping us refine the project’s final report and shape future initiatives more effectively.
For more information, you can email env-cites@ec.europa.eu.
We look forward to your valuable contribution to this dialogue on the dynamics of the exotic pet trade in Europe.
