The participants
INVESTIES gather together 60 women activists, researchers, entrepreneurs, teachers, campaigners, civil servants, as well as current and former elected representatives. All Investies are involved in local mobilisations, related to social, civil rights or environmental advocacy, and wish to explore the political landscape, in broad terms. Through several meetings of committed women, the first cohort has been set up in September 2020 by word of mouth. The participants worked together to co-design the training program based on their questionnings and expertise. Among them:
"Investies allows me to rethink power, on a purely democratic scale, in a manner that values the ethics of our representatives. I hope that together we can spark a true citizen revolution in the face of major climate and social challenges and against inequality."

"With Investies, I feel like I am bringing a column that others can build on and have columns brought by others, that I can build on."
