At the 2026 WARN Asia Conference, we will explore how rescue centres can go beyond responding to wildlife emergencies and become places for conservation, education, community engagement, and meaningful visitor experiences.
Why Sandakan?

Located on the northeast coast of Borneo, Sandakan is surrounded by some of Sabah’s most important wildlife and forest landscapes.
From orangutans and sun bears to proboscis monkeys and hornbills, Sabah is home to an extraordinary diversity of wildlife, and a fitting setting for discussions about wildlife rescue, conservation, and responsible tourism.
This November, we are bringing the 2026 WARN Asia Conference to Sandakan!
🗓️ 16-18 November 2026
📍 Sandakan, Sabah, Malaysia
