  • Summary

  • In this second episode of Forest Builders, we are listening to Etelle Higonnet, the founder of Coffee Watch.


    Etelle has been an activist against deforestation for decades, working with Climate Defiance, Mighty Earth, and Greenpeace among others, while in the earlier years of her career she focused on Human Rights advocacy. Her impactful work has been recognized most notably as she received the médaille of chevalier de l'ordre national du Mérite in France.


    In this episode, we will understand why she moved her focus from fighting for human rights to fighting deforestation, and what keeps her smiling even after decades of witnessing wrongdoings. Let's discover what is in the toolbox of a seasoned advocate who believes that changing industries as established as cocoa and coffee is not only necessary – it is possible.


    If you don't like listening to angry environmental activists - this episode is just right for you because Etelle is everything but. She's laughing, she's smiling, and well she still found a way to bring a change. If you are ready to meet an activist like no other – let’s go!
