Spark Talks and Unlocking Nature Igniting a Passion for Conservation Spark Talks sets the stage for conservation-centered dialogue with the aim of igniting a passion for nature conservation. We want people to talk about conservation. To stand up and tell their stories. Based on the TED Talks concept, Spark Talks invite a diverse and interesting set of speakers to share their love for nature and their conservation stories.
In 2020, when the world went into lockdown, Spark Talks migrated online as Unlocking Nature. Hosted live over Zoom, Unlocking Nature allows conservationists and conservation companies to share their stories, research and adventures with audiences across the globe – from the comfort of their homes. Browse our library of speakers and be inspired to take action for nature!
