Abstract

Women leaders who are at the forefront of environmental conservation efforts, have been instrumental in mitigating the effects of climate change, protecting biodiversity, and promoting sustainable development. The EMEA Region has seen an increasing number of women leaders in various industries and they play a crucial role in shaping public opinion on environmental issues. In this Chapter, their specific contributions are examined, including awareness, grassroots mobilization, and policy and advocacy. The challenges and opportunities they face, which include gender bias, risk and safety, collaboration and partnerships, and the role of media are also identified. Women can be effective leaders in environmental management through: collaboration and teamwork; communication; problem solving and innovation; attention to detail; as well as empathy and inclusivity. Women leaders promote sustainable development, protect the environment and their work in the media inspire and empower other women to take on leadership roles and contribute towards sustainable development.
