Mathilde Maïsano

A forest engineer who graduated in Québec, Mathilde is particularly attached to the rights of human minorities. She is involved in sociopolitical stakes of forest management and is interested in the use of natural resources by native communities.

Her devotion to associative movements and her passion for outdoor sports and adventure pushed her to create the Lands and Men project, to study the relationship between Andean native communities and their environment. She hopes to make of this journey a special occasion to exchange thoughts and experiences with local populations.

A sport instructor, Sara is specialized in outdoor sports. She is really passionated with human science and foreign cultures. Thanks to her volition to take up sportive challenges and live human experiences, she has been traveling in Australia where she got interested in the observation of relationships being built up in a team, when life context is unusual.
