Aurélie SALVAIRE

Barcelona

Definitely restless, I have the constant feeling that a multiplicity of windows are simultaneously open in my brain.

I thrive in intellectually stimulating environments with a global perspective.

My focus: women empowerment!

After 5 years as senior consultant in healthcare, I joined the nonprofit sector to set up the emergency unit of Oxfam Spain.

I had the opportunity to work on the field as Finance and HR Manager of their refugee camp project in Ethiopia and then joined Ashoka France to support social entrepreneurs.

These last years have been dedicated to nurturing a powerful network of inspiring individuals.

It is now time to turn my own ideas into action through different projects:

  • As the Vice President of W4, a crowdfunding platform dedicated to women empowerment projects around the globe.
  • As the Lead Curator of TEDxBarcelonaWomen and TEDxBarcelonaChange to spread powerful ideas and projects in the community
  • As an entrepreneur setting up mentoring projects of women-led businesses with social impact.

In my spare time, I love diving, especially in wrecks and caves.

Obviously traveling in remote places like Uzbekistan or Eritrea and sharing my experiences through the blog I have been writing for 7 years now.

My main property is my library: full of books from allover the world.

My motto: let's aim for the moon!
