WiNN SPAIN

After attending the 2022 WiNN Global Conference in Nepal, Fatima D. Gigante, a young Spanish environmental professional, was inspired to create a WiNN chapter in Spain to create similar opportunities for women working in conservation to connect and support each other. She wrote about her powerful experience in a post for CoalitionWILD’s Wild Voices blog; an excerpt is below.

If you live in Spain and are interested in becoming part of our community, please reach out to us to start a chapter in your region!


In September, 2022, I was very lucky to be able to participate in the Global Networking Conference in Kathmandu Nepal. I had the once-in-a-lifetime experience of connecting with incredible women working to advance the conservation agenda in very challenging contexts, but who radiated tons of energy and light that made me not only feel inspired, but also energized...From that moment, I knew I wanted to create something similar here in Spain.
