Empowering Women To Protect the Rainforest

Sara Lara and Isabella Cortes join us on the Lookfar Podcast to talk about how they are striving to break down barriers at grassroots levels in Colombia preventing rural and indigenous women from becoming conservationists through their work with ⁠⁠Women for Conservation⁠⁠⁠ (W4C), founded by Sara and now run by her daughter Isabella, and ⁠Fundación ProAves⁠⁠, now run by Sara. In a wide ranging conversation, we talk about how helping women to become park rangers in remote protected areas and providing accessible reproductive healthcare to rural communities supports inclusive conservation and how this has been a life-changer for thousands of girls and women. Available on all major podcast platforms. Just search Lookfar and you'll find it!
