Launched in 2019, the Terre de Femmes International Award is a thematic prize open to all citizens of the world. It rewards field actions carried out by a woman or
a group of women, in a non-profit structure.
Jacques Rocher, at the initiative of this program, has always had the conviction that women are the key to our future. More than ever, at the time of climate negotiations, he says the need to collectively carry the voice of those who act on the ground every day. Despite sometimes difficult conditions, the pragmatism and expertise of women are qualities that open up innovative possibilities, bring out new forms of solidarity or inventive forms of cooperation in favor of biodiversity.
Because tomorrow is preserved today, because the climate emergency requires all the liveliest forces, we thought of the International Award as a prize open to all citizens of the world committed to the protection of the environment. .
Women of action, join the movement!

Deforestation, draining of wetlands, soil artificialization, chemical pollution, forest fires, use of pesticides but also hunting and wildlife trafficking, intensive fishing, global warming… Never have animal species been so threatened. Faced with this unprecedented crisis, it seemed essential to us to dedicate the International Award 2022 to wildlife. Our objective ? Supporting projects led by women, in connection with the safeguarding of this precious and marvelous fauna… We have received many exciting projects, promoting the importance of wildlife as essential to the ecosystem dynamics of the planet.
The choice was difficult but two projects touched us right
in the heart !

new impetus to their projects!
