Brune Poirson joins Prince Albert II Foundation board
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
Former French secretary of state Brune Poirson has been appointed to the board of the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.
Brune Poirson, former French deputy and secretary of state, has joined the board of directors of the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, the Principality's leading environmental body. Her appointment adds a significant political and policy dimension to the Foundation's governance at a time when climate diplomacy continues to occupy the international agenda.
Poirson served in the French government under Prime Minister Édouard Philippe, where she held responsibility for ecological and inclusive transition. Her background in environmental policy and her experience navigating European and international institutions align closely with the Foundation's mission to drive action on biodiversity, climate change and oceans. The appointment reinforces the Foundation's longstanding practice of drawing on figures with real institutional weight rather than ceremonial credibility.
