Cycle des Grandes Conférences 2023 with the National Geographic explorer Sarah Marquis
For the 2023 edition of our annual Cycle des Grandes Conférences, we had the great honor of hosting National Geographic Explorer Sarah Marquis. During this exceptional conference, the adventurer shared with us her 25 years of experience and solo expeditions to the most isolated and hostile environments of our planet.
Sarah has walked a distance equivalent to the circumference of the world, often encountering treacherous and inhospitable terrain, extreme temperatures and dangerous people.
I found water where there was none, I found food where there was none. We are all adapted to nature. I'm not a superwoman.
Sarah is an inspiring example of resilience, determination and the spirit of survival. Her stories and life lessons captivated an audience of more than 500 people.
