What does being an author of the Women in Herpetology Book means to you?
The publication of the GWH book is a positive sign for change in the largely male dominated communities of herpetology: for the very first time such a high number of women herpetologist will express themselves in a book. Let's go on!

The GWH Book project gave me the chance to sit down and finally think to my story from a personal perspective, and I am trilled by the possibility that this small contribution can help motivate new people pursuing this path. Herpetology needs more diversity!

Why did you decided to contribute to the project?
To encourage...that is what some of us are constantly doing, and have been doing through centuries.

I wanted my story to be heard to inspire other young women especially those in Africa. We can make it if we put our minds to it.

Contributing to the GWH Book provides an opportunity to showcase the experiences of women in herpetology, inspiring others and creating a global network of female herpetologists. It fosters collaboration, promotes diversity, and empowers women in the field.
