Guech Sok is a rising senior at Beloit College, majoring in environmental biology. Guech wants to explore sustainable agriculture endeavors in Cambodia, and hopes to inspire other Cambodian women to take an interest in the field of agriculture. Guech also hopes to apply what she’s learned about documenting native flowers and plants in order to preserve them. On campus, Guech is an executive team member of the Beloit Urban Garden. Last summer, Guech was an intern at Fauna in Focus, Siem Reap, an NGO that focuses on conservation of wildlife animals and biodiversity in Cambodia. She assisted with the development of an educational nature trail, a model farm and a tree nursery station.
Guech spent a semester at the University of Otago, New Zealand in 2019 and then again in 2020. At Otago, she took courses related to Botany and Environment in Oceania. Before she joined SHE-CAN and came to the U.S, Guech was selected to study at Warsaw University of Life sciences, Poland for a semester. There, she learned about the agriculture system in European countries and took courses relating to landscape architecture such as garden design. |
