In 2024, Camille Coudrat was honored to be selected as one of 15 women working in nature conservation in Southeast Asia. This Women in Conservation Leadership Program is organized and delivered by the IUCN SSC Asian Species Action Partnership (ASAP) and Visibility Co. Through the programme the participating women will develop more effective leadership, gain confidence and build practical skills to increase their influence, communication and positive mindset.
The 8-month program started with an in-person one-week retreat in May 2024 in Siem Riep, Cambodia. During the retreat, the 15 selected candidates and the coaching team had the opportunity to get to know each other, work together in a series of workshops, and share stories and experiences of inspiration and resilience. The team also had the privilege to visit Angkor Wat at sunrise and the Angkor Center for Conservation of Biodiversity This program provides a unique opportunity for joining hands with fellow women leaders in conservation to make a tangible difference for species conservation in Southeast Asia.
Throughout the year 2024, the women and the coaching team will continue to meet online for workshops and coaching sessions centered around three foundational modules: visibility to self (to build a strong foundation for our wellbeing, define our values and vision), visibility to others (to build our influence in ways that feel authentic and strategic) and visibility for collective impact (to learn how our leadership and influence can have the best impact within the wider system).
