As part of the Natur’ELLES project, SOCODEVI developed a women’s leadership program aimed at strengthening women’s capacities. In this context, IISD delivered a training module on photography and visual storytelling. The goal is to empower women with skills to conduct awareness campaigns and advocacy for environmental issues and their inclusion in decision-making bodies. This session will showcase stories of resilience and amplify women’s voices through visual narration.
