Every month, Mindbridge celebrates a Human Rights Defender working to support throughout their communities.
Camille Collet is a deeply committed advocate for children’s rights. She studied psychology, worked as a research assistant on several political psychology projects, and is now starting a Master’s in Human Rights and Politics at the London School of Economics, where she seeks to bridge social science research and public policymaking in the field of child welfare.
As a survivor of childhood abuse, she is committed to raising awareness of how often children’s voices are dismissed and how few safe opportunities they are given to speak out, despite their profound vulnerability to abuse and systemic violence.
She believes that effectively addressing violence against children requires an interdisciplinary approach that brings together psychology, politics, and international law. By combining trauma-informed perspectives with structural and inclusive policymaking, she hopes to contribute to more effective systems of prevention, protection, and justice.
More broadly, Camille is interested in applying psychological insights to diplomacy and public policymaking to help ensure that human rights are not treated merely as political instruments, but as meaningful safeguards for human dignity and fundamental rights.
