YWP Podcast Season 6 Episode 1 - Taking Conservation to the Skies with Sacha Dench

In this episode of The Birding Life Podcast, we sit down with the incredible Sacha Dench -often known as the “Human Swan” - whose work has taken conservation storytelling to extraordinary heights.

From flying thousands of kilometres alongside migratory birds to leading some of the most ambitious conservation expeditions in the world, Sacha has redefined what it means to raise awareness for wildlife. But behind the adventure lies something deeper – a powerful commitment to connecting people with nature in a way that truly inspires change.

In this conversation, we explore the stories behind the flights, the challenges of pushing physical and mental limits, and the role of storytelling in modern conservation. Sacha shares what it takes to turn bold ideas into real impact, and why now, more than ever, we need voices that can bring the natural world closer to people.

This is a conversation about courage, purpose, and the kind of passion that quite literally takes flight.
